Sandhurst has a nice little collection of rather battered
late medieval, stained glass.

The things one finds when one's poking about in old churches!

St. Anthony Abbot seems to be very popular in Germany in particular. I started noticing statues there a couple of years ago of a monk with a great pig nearby and began taking photos. I just love the idea of a pig as a buddy so SAA is okay in my book!
