Pulpit
The 15th Century Priory and Parish Church of St Mary Lancaster or more commonly known as Lancaster Priory stands by the Castle on a hill, overlooking the city, is built on the site of a priory which was founded in 1094.
The interior is mostly medieval but has 13 centuries of history, evident from traces of a Saxon church, such as the Saxon doorway with Anglican cross fragments, 14th Century choir stalls, superb tapestries, and King's Own Memorial Chapel with historical regimental standards and battle honours.
The carved pulpit dates from 1619. It was originally a three-decker pulpit with a canopy surmounted by a crown on a Bible. In 1999 the canopy was reinstated.
