Notes: The woodcarvings on this page are to be found by
the stairs. They are apparently dated around 1520, and show the
face of John Thomas (above left), who demolished the rear of the
aisled hall, as well as his wife (above right)and his hobbies -
see below:

The four photos above show the same carved scene of bear-baiting,
one of John Thomas' hobbies.
Below are some photos of the stair area where all the carvings
are placed.
