Title: 15c St George Mural
Post by: Stuart on 08 December 2017, 09:53:47 PM
I visited this place last week, awe inspiring and still very fresh. Llancarfan Church not far from Cardiff. The mural is dated to the early part of Henry VII's reign

I think that would be a good subject for a standard Stuart ;):)

Wasn't this chapel featured on the telly recently?  Might have been a snippet in a Time Team re-run or something like that, rather than a full-blown programme of its own.

That is interesting. Is that a precursor to wall paper St. George is painted over top of?

They're Lancastrian rose stencils
