In 2003 there were a series of archaeological excavations within Lichfield Cathedral. During these, at the east end of the Nave, a most wonderful early Medieval sculpture was unearthed. Carved from limestone, it is probably the corner of a shrine chest.....possibly that of St. Chad himself, who died in 672. Not only does the fine carving survive (albeit in 3 pieces) but even some of the original colouring.
The Angel is displayed within the Chapter House of the Cathedral. Well worth seeking out such a rarity. It even has its its own website!
Poor chap.....his statue (which was once displayed at the front of the cathedral) is desperately eroded from the pollution of the past few centuries. Nevertheless, it's clearly King Charles ll, with his flouncy Restoration clothing and long, lush curls. He's stuck round the side of the cathedral now, easily missed, but at least has his own rain-covering to stop him eroding even more.
He deserved a special statue, by the way, because he gave Lichfield a big lump of money to help restore the Cathedral after it was so badly damaged during the English Civil War (which ended when the Roundheads, led by Oliver Cromwell, deposed and beheaded his father Charles l).
Staffordshire University is one of the good universities in midlands. It is situated on three main campuses, Stoke, Stafford and Lichfield. It has over 12000 full-time students.
It has few affilated colleges in the area as well.
