There was a preview of this work in progress, back in March, at the Clubs and Societies Open Day. The completed panel of carvings is now in on display in the library.
The panels have been carved to commemorate Abingdon’s 450th Charter Year by the local branch of the British Woodcarvers Association.

The group was set up as a result of a wood carving course led by Brian Eastoe, at Abingdon College. Panels show Abingdon subjects such as a soldier from Dalton Barracks…
…Abingdon Bridge…
…and a 1556 Penny – somewhat larger than the original.
