More about this scene
This reredos is a modern addition depicting the Adoration of the Shepherds (left) and the Entombment of Christ. On the north side of the north chapel is a tomb in memory of Richard Strode (died 1464); this bears an unusual representation of the Holy Trinity, showing God holding a crucifix between his knees and a dove at the top of the cross. This 'Italian Trinity' was very popular between the 12th and 17th centuries. The only other one in Devon is at Ashwater.
