Colour detail image of the intricately carved Norman stone font, depicting complex patterns and an animal’s head, in St. Peter’s church, Shernbourne, Kings Lynn, Norfolk.

The carved Norman font at St. Peter’s, Shernbourne has a key design feature of plaited knotwork, which trails around the it almost like foliage. All four sides are different. Faces peer out and figures in roundels strike mystifying attitudes. Not one part of it remains uncarved.
