They were added during a 19th century restoration as practical architectural features - they may have included water spouts or something to redirect water runoff from the building. Though they don’t belong to the iconography of Christianity, they have become emblematic of the building’s character.Script 2Now I think that’s what we call spilling the tea … find out if it gets cleaned up tomorrow at half 7And talking of spilling the tea … could Diane’s drinking from the poisoned chalice mean the death of her?
