More about this scene

Though St Peter's dates from Saxon times, it is believed that Hamelin Plantaganet might have also have rebuilt the church, as much of the stonework is 12th-century. The most important feature is a carved Norman tomb-chest depicting various scenes including knights jousting, Adam and Eve, and a warrior fighting with a dragon.
