Llandaff Cathedral, Llandaff, Cardiff, Glamorgan
The Lady Chapel was completed in about 1280. In the centre of the reredos, the 15th century carved screen immediately below the window, is a statue of Mary and the Christ-child by A.G.Walker, placed there in 1934. The gilded panels to each side, designed by Frank Roper in 1954, each depict a wild flower with welsh names that honour Mary.

The Memento Mori or Cadaver Tomb depicting a partially decomposed corpse. Rather macabre but typical of the period.
