Statue of Saint Christopher
United Kingdom
The Statue of Saint Christopher stands in the museum at Norton Priory, Runcorn, Cheshire, England. It is a large statue of Saint Christopher created towards the end of the 14th century and is a rare survival of a religious sculpture from late medieval England. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries the sculpture was owned by the Brooke family and stood originally in the outer courtyard of their house, and later in the garden. When the Brooke family left the site, the statue remained and, in a damaged condition, it was given to National Museums Liverpool in 1964. It has been restored and is housed in the museum on the site of the priory.
