XI. Ancient Pulpit of Jarrow Church.

The remains of this beautiful carved pulpit are in the possession of Mr.

Rippon, a zealous collector of carvings and antique furniture. It has

been very small—less in proportion to the figure than in our engraving

it has been made to appear for the sake of effect—indeed scarcely large

enough for a man to stand inside. It is in the same style of workmanship

and of the same date as the reading desk given in a former plate (p.

III.) of this work.
