THE CANTILUPE SHRINE
The famous shrine of St. Thomas de Can-
tilupe, the last Englishman to be canonized
before the Reformation, was built in the
north transept of Hereford Cathedral to
receive the bones of the saint. Only the
pedestal now remains. This is built entirely
of Purbeck Marble and consists of two
divisions. The lower portion is closed and
a series of niches contains figures of Knights
Templars armed and treading on monsters;
the upper portion is an open arcade and
upon this rested the actual shrine containing
the relics of the saint. The shrine was one
of the most frequented in the west of Eng-
land and many miracles are supposed to
have taken place there.
