Cycled through Leckhampstead on my #NewYear ride today.
This little 'endy' village is in a steep valley of the river Leck, a tributary of the Great Ouse.
The timpanum over the south doorway of the church shows a pair of pagan-looking #Wyverns and a pointy-eared devil.
The timpanum may predate the Norman doorway as it does not fill the archway well.
I try to imagine the fearful worldview of the people who chose this image for a building that was so important in their lives.
