One of the finest collections of medieval statues in the country exists hidden in plain sight in the centre of a Cornish town.
The statues can be seen in the old market town of St Austell but are missed by many – because they are not at ground level.
The works from the Middle Ages are high up on the tower of the parish church, which is dedicated to the Holy Trinity.
St Austell features in Andrew Townsend's informative travel book, Cornwall Favourites For One And All!, which is available on Amazon.
