Description: | A late Medieval pendant figure representing a standing saint with a cross-staff in his left hand and an open book in his right hand. He appears to wear the robes of a monk and is bearded and perhaps tonsured. The top of his head is obscured by a saucer-shaped base to the suspension loop, which serves as a halo. The saint stands on an architectural bracket, which is octagonal, waisted and rounded off at its base.The pendant is silver- gilt and dates from the early sixteenth century.
