Arundel - Statue in aedicule

Image: © Rob Farrow Taken: 3 May 2015

This little statue half-way up the building on the corner of Maltavers Street and Parson's Hill drew my attention. To quote the English Heritage listing for 40/42/44 Maltravers Street http://list.historicengland.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1278026&searchtype=mapsearch "Between stringcourses at the south-west corner is an aedicule, the moulded base taken on acanthus corbelling, framed by colonnettes, with a battered canopy with finial and drop tracery, over niche containing statue of crowned male figure in mediaeval dress, a sword in right hand, and model of a Romanesque church in left hand (presumably a royal founder)."
