Veryan - St Symphorian - Mediæval carved saint
Image: © Rob Farrow Taken: 3 Aug 2024
This carved wooden saint is to be found towards the eastern end of the north wall of Image] It is thought to be mediæval (e.g. pre 1500) but I can find no information on which particular saint it depicts. Perhaps it is St Symphorian to whom the church is dedicated, but I think that is more likely to be St Paul. See shared description below:
