The St John family polyptych, erected in 1615 in St Mary's, Lydiard Tregoze, Wiltshire. It has two sets of doors and eleven painted panels. Though a difficult subject to photograph, this image has been recognized as one of the finest photographic records of the monument.

I came across this term in A dictionary of heraldry by Charles Norton Elvin. Has anyone come across it before? A similar word in the form of vilené exists in French blazonry, but has a different meaning (pizzle).

The really rather lovely altar frontal at St Peter's, Lowick is a beautifully embroidered depiction of one of the 14thC windows in the church. It shows Sir Simon de Drayton (possibly) offering a model of the church.
