medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

 

He's on the font at Gresford in north Wales and (probably) on the tomb
of (probably) William Bulkeley in Beaumaris. If anyone is interested
I'll try to think of a way of uploading images somewhere. 

A very political saint because of his role in releasing prisoners - I
certainly think that's why he's at Gresford. The font was being
installed just as the local marcher lord, William Stanley, was arrested
for complicity in the Perkin Warbeck plot.
