St Ant

St. Anthony the Hermit at Plymtree. He wears a black cloak, or cappa hood and scapular over a white habit. The lining is red. Round his neck he has a large rosary ending in a red tassel. The large beads are red and the small white. A Tau-headed staff is in his left hand, and in his right a book, and what appear to be traces of a bell. On his shoulder is a red Tau cross.



St Ant

A similar figure, though better designed, is found at Ashton. Here St. Anthony is in black and white habit as at Plymtree, but without the red lining ; a white Tau cross on his black cappa, and the pig at his side.
