Summary edit

Description
English: St Andrew's church - C15 baptismal font. St Andrew's church > 1338123 is in the grounds of Raveningham Hall > 1338001 between grazing pastures and the famous garden. The round tower dates from the early 14th century. The south door is decorated with three C13 wrought iron crosses > 1338248 but the church interior > 1338159 - 1338219 is predominantly 19th century. The chancel contains a series of elaborately framed memorials > 1338164 to members of the Bacon family of Norfolk (the premier baronetcy of England). Remains from earlier times are the C15 octagonal font and several brasses, one of which is to Margaret Castyll (d. 1483) > 1338187 - the wife of one of Richard III's squires. She is shown with a dragon at her feet as her patron saint, and a little pet dog hides in the skirts of her gown. The church is open every day.
