The Altar and Chancel
This image shows the altar in greater detail. The altar of the chapel stood within the chancel, and was probably a simple
wooden table that would have been covered in a coloured or precious cloth. The altar here is shown with two candles, and
you can see here a jug, chalice and paten for use in the mass. Also visible is a leather-bound bible, which probably would
have belonged to the family.
You can now
see a photograph of the chapel under excavation,
explore the chapel in virtual reality,
learn about Gilbert the miner who died here in 1341, or return to the
Thrislington home page by clicking the 'Medieval Village' tab below.
