Two Columns

Two Columns
These Tuscan (or possibly Doric) columns were once chimneys. Not all of Lacock Abbey is really old; a 'new' hall was built in 1755 by the Squire, John Ivory Talbot. The unwanted chimneys were salvaged for this project and a mason called Benjamin Carter carved a sphinx to go on top.

Good grief, it looks like a high-rise tomb.
