What is recorded here
Incorporated in the S face of the N boundary wall of the yard of the RC church near the E gable of the church. One of three architectural fragments with carved heads (also TS065-013010- and TS065-013011-) from the former cathedral (TS065-013002-). Decorated capital of engaged column with carved head of 13-century date. It is a male head with long hair curling up at the ends. The facial features are badly eroded and there is only a rudimentary neck. It probably formed part of a window, possibly the capital at the springing of the arch of an inner window embrasure.
