Description

The choir stalls in Manchester Cathedral date from around 1505-1510. This misericord, in the fourteenth stall from the west on the south side of the choir, depicts a hart couchant, or perhaps an antelope, supported on either side by three flower buds in a roundel, at the end of which is another flower bud.
