Date Added: 21st Apr 2023
Site Type: Sculptured Stone
Country: England (Northumberland)
Visited: Saw from a distance on 16th Sep 2018. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 5 Access 4
Bamburgh Castle submitted by Anne T on 10th Oct 2018. This piece of carved stone is recorded in the Corpus of Anglo Saxon Stone Sculpture as the 'Bamburgh Castle' stone. Its style dates it to the last quarter of the eighth century to the first quarter of the ninth. Originally described in the 19th century as part of a large cross head, it is know known to be part of the arm of a stone chair or throne. A reproduction can be found outside the keep of the castle, although the Corpus says it is not clear if it is meant to be part of the back or seat.
