Hereford's 800-year-old rude carving

Available for over a year

All Saints Church might just be home to the cheekiest carving to be found in a church, depicting a man with his legs by his head, with his nether regions expressively displayed. Organist Richard Glasspoole from the Hereford church tells Elliott Webb how the motivation for the carving remains unknown over eight centuries later. Image credit: All Saints Church, Hereford
