There are many surviving mediaeval wooden lecterns in English country churches, St Mary’s itself has one, made from oak, but metal lecterns are very rare. Single-headed eagle lecterns are common, but double-headed eagles are much rarer. St Mary’s has a brass double headed brass eagle, well worth a visit to see this artifact alone. One in the exotic surroundings of St. Mark’s basilica in Venice.
