🤣 Love this so much. Uffenbach was grumpy about his visit to @theul.bsky.social too. Hopefully visitors had a better experience of the Woodward cabinets when they moved to the Library a few years later in the Conyers Middleton era …

A literary Iguanodon at the Earth Sciences Library. Do any other libraries have dinosaurs or other antediluvian creatures carved into the furniture?

I think it’s just the common variety growing all around the Library as a wildflower.

The very colourful rood screen at the Church of All Saints in Earls Barton, Northamptonshire, has some unusual decoration…it was re-painted in 1935 by Henry Bird, who happened to be a lepidopterist and incorporated hundreds of butterflies into his design!
