The Edward Despenser Chantry or Holy Trinity Chapel at Tewkesbury Abbey contains a fine 14thC depiction of the Trinity flanked by enthusiastically censing angels and kneeling donors.
How wonderful it must have been when newly painted.

The 14thC tower and broach spire at St Mary and All Saints, Willoughby-on-the-Wolds make for a very handsome church indeed, its 14thC chantry Chapel which is dedicated to St Nicholas was built by the Willoughby family and is a little treasure house.

Lovely flowing 14thC tracery at St Mary's, Car Colston, Nottinghamshire.
The chancel is larger and higher than the nave which gives it such a light, airy feel and the smart communion rails of 1732 with the little semi-circular projection really suit the space.

Absolutely lovely 14thC grave slab set into the exterior wall at St Luke's, Hickling.
The foliage is truly naturalistic with little curves and bends in the stalks, it's one of the nicest I've seen to date.

12th/13th/14thC painted draperies in the Galilee Chapel at Durham Cathedral for #TextileTuesday
I'm hedging my bets date wise, I've read that the painting of Cuthbert on the right is 12thC but the draperies might be later.

I am completely obsessed with this thread trying to identify European birds in 14thc manuscripts
Some of these birds could be fantastic, but I believe most are birds which the artist, in 14th-century Flanders, was familiar with – some more than others, but altogether well-observed. Below are a whole bunch that I couldn't ID. If you recognise any as a garden familiar, please add their name! 1/16

A panel of restored 14thC glass at St Mary's, Meysey Hampton. Although named St Mathias it's actually a a composite made up from miscellaneous fragments by the restorers. Still lovely though, the face and quill are particularly fine.

La surprenante indépendance des femmes du Moyen Âge : ce que nous apprennent leurs testaments
Dans les villes européennes du début du Moyen Âge, les droits des femmes se sont étendus. Les testaments sont parmi les rares documents que les femmes ont quelquefois dicté elles-mêmes au notaire.

14thC gold seal ring belonging to the powerful Matilda of Lancaster, found by detectorists. Stunning to find something like this that’s been owned by a woman, most similar rings belonged to powerful men. But surprised this wonderful treasure has been auctioned off 😔 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
