On the left-hand entrance pillar is this carving of a lion. The carving is unfortunately quite weather-worn, so the details originally on the shield are indistinct. King George V reigned from 1910 to 1936 but the dates shown here are 1910 to 1930, presumably because he was still alive at the time the carving was undertaken. Image
