Created in the 12th century, this characterful carving would have stood guard as part of a tympanum at St Marys Priory, Thetford. With the help of your Adoption, he will instead welcome thousands of visitors as part of Norwich Castles new medieval displays and also entertain the next generation as Ludo, the mascot for our new childrens area at Norwich Castle Keep. Hes the perfect gift for anyone with a passion for history or architecture, or perhaps for a young historian just beginning their journey.
