St Cuthbert

Durham Cathedral is the home of the shrine of Saint Cuthbert (685-687), shown here praying in front of his cell in the Farne Islands, surrounded by the nature he loved, preaching in a mountain village and in his bishop's regalia holding the head of St Oswald (605-642), which was buried with him and is often shown with him. (His attribute?)
