Norwich Chronicles: Norwich Cathedral (Part 1)

UPD. I remember visiting Norwich Cathedral 10 years ago and trying to capture the images, but the old camera lens for the most part failed. I finally got a chance to try again.

So, I am beginning to post a series of the most renowned Norwich Cathedral cloister bosses: seeing them was the main purpose of this visit.
Carved mostly in the 15th century, they outnumbered by a thousand all the rest of the same mediaeval artworks elsewhere; alongside the classical Biblical scenes, some of them are heavily Pagan and are deeply rooted in the local mythology and ghost lore.
Here you can see the Green Man images and the like. Enjoy!
