Dragon with its tongue out

North Elmham has a ruined medieval chapel, but almost next door, the "newer" church of St Mary the Virgin, dates from the C14th. There are an impressive collection of carved C15th pew end and poppyheads, with a wide variety of animals, birds, mythical beasts, and heads.

 

Variations on the theme of dragons are always popular as they are associated with evil, as well as St George.
