"Here are some details of the incredible angel roof on the nave at Cawston in Norfolk. The roof dates from c. 1460. On the hammerbeams of the roof stand eleven six-foot tall seraphim, still with much of their original colour on them. Some have their hands in prayer, others in adoration. On the east wall of the nave at the same level as the roof, is the shadow in red ochre of the long-lost great rood cross."
