| The Parish Church of St. John of Beverley,
St. John Lee |
| The Nave |
|
 |
The most impressive feature in the
nave is the carved roof - fine carpentry and carving.
Around the top of the walls are carved the words from the Te Deum (the Song
of the Church, usually said at morning prayer).
Further down the wall at about shoulder height are carved the words from Psalm
22 .
Down the centre of the ceiling leading to the chancel screen are carved statues
of some of the Apostles and evangelists.
The Chancel Screen itself was made in 1886 with a much later addition of the
carved scene from Calvary on the top in 1983. |
