St Mary's church - C14 baptismal font
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: St Mary's church - C14 baptismal font. The church > 890917 - 890930 - 890941 dates from the 14th century and was built by Sir Hugh Hastyngs, whose life-sized brass has survived: a replica, as well as the remains of the original > 890940 - dated to 1347 and executed after the design on the Earl of Pembroke's tomb in Westminster Abbey - can still be seen today. St Mary's has no aisles and the nave roof spans 12 metres, which makes it the widest pillarless nave in East Anglia > 890928. The communion rails are late C18 or early C19. There are a number of medieval survivals such as the C14 font (seen here) with a magnificent 15th century cover > 890949. C14 stained glass can be seen in one of the chancel windows, and there is a medieval rood screen dado with 8 painted panels; the paintings, however, are very faded > 890931. The church is open every day. For more information see: http://www.norfolkchurches.co.uk/elsing/elsing.htm |
