Bishop Wilton

St Edith's is tucked away between the houses of the village and upon first sight it looks as if it is unlikely to deliver much of interest. Once inside the porch it is obvious there is plenty to see.

The wonderful Romanesque door arch has a variety of carvings including an early style green man or foliage spewer. The chancel arch is similar though not as heavily decorated.

The male exhibitionist, now damaged, looks down into the baptistry and is joined by several other figures on high throughout the church.

There are several wooden green man carvings, one on the north transept screen and the others on the pew backs.

Well worth a visit.
