_Woodwork of St. Andrew's Priory Church, Barnwell._--The Cambridge

Andrew's Priory Church, Barnwell, will feel deeply indebted to any of your
readers who can give them any information respecting the carved woodwork
removed from that church some forty years ago, to make way for the present
hideous arrangement of pews and pulpit. A man who lives on the spot speaks

were sold by auction; and the rest was in his possession for some time, and
portions of it were given away by him to all who applied for it.

"The Mitre and the Crown, or a real Distinction between them: in a
Letter to a Reverend Member of the Convocation: Lond. 1711, 8vo."

lately ascertained by the vast number of Norman mouldings found in the
walls in restoring it?
