I worked for Professor Baker on the west front of Exeter Cathedral  for two summers. The king (left) and the knight shown next to him were repaired using a system of cast lead and lime repairs. The empty niche below was the subject of a sculpture competition  won by Simon Verity . My submission, unfinished, is shown above. The drawing left was made in the late 1980's by Stuart Blaylock of Exeter Archaeology in the course of the front’s repair and conservation. It shows the sculptures around the south porch. Dating from around 1342 to 1480
