No side; back legs of two planks joined at right angles; projecting top with moulded edge and crosses inscribed at each corner of top surface. Panels of geometric floral patterns, all different – much use of compass. Engraved decoration. Lower panels reflect upper ones but grain horizontal rather than vertical. Re-used from older piece of furniture (the pulpit at St Mary, Lowgate, seen in photograph HEXAB3056). Oak frame has chamfered edges |

| 2005 incorporating carved panels made in 1895 |
| On March 6th 2005 a new altar for the Lady Chapel was dedicated and used for the first time. Made by Derek Dellow of Corbridge, it incorporated panels of the pulpit from the chapel of St Mary, Lowgate. The simple pentagonal pulpit had been given in 1895 by the Rector, the Revd Canon Barker and the Misses Barker. The panels were the work of Miss Barker. [News & Views April 2005] |
