Winged angel shown frontally with outstretched wings, holding a heraldic shield. The figure has curled hair and wears a green garment with a red collar. The shield bears three gold lions arranged vertically on a red field.
Heraldry
Provisional blazon: Gules, three lions passant guardant in pale Or.
In plain English: Three gold lions, walking and facing the viewer, arranged one above another on a red field. These are the royal arms of England.
Condition
The carving is substantially intact, including the head, wings, hands and shield. Extensive painted decoration survives, although it is worn and locally abraded. The three lions remain recognisable, and substantial colour survives on the shield, figure and wings.
