A May King The second of two peepers here at Horningsham, and also the second of this sub-set of the green man motif that we have found in Wiltshire. This lord is a king, crowned and peeping out at us from the surrounding foliage. He is serene and thoughtful, a fitting partner to the queen nearby. He can be found on the west corner of the exterior of the north aisle. Also at Horningsham Three more green men A carved angel roof inside the church A holy well up on the main road, below a stone cross
