DescriptionKilpeck Details of Door Arch.jpg | A scan from a 35mm transparency which I took at the exquisite Romanesque church of Saint Mary and Saint David in Kilpeck, Herefordshire, England in 1989. It shows a detail of the carvings on the arch above the south door, depicting five linked serpents swallowing each other's tails, a dragon swallowing its own tail, and part of the linked outer border of lion heads above it. The motif inside the ring is a curious "lion-bird", apparently a damaged winged lion's body repaired with a bird's head taken from elsewhere. Carved during the mid 12th century AD (late Norman period) by an unknown sculptor of the "Herfordshire School". |
