16th Century Vandalism

Before the Reformation this amazing Lady Chapel at Ely would have been brightly coloured and all the windows would be have been stained glass. There were hundreds of exquisitely carved figures but every single head was destroyed ( See photo above). Pure vandalism.
Cromwells men were responsible for damage/vandalism caused in a church that we visited last week.

I love Ely, but didn't know that.
