Excerpt from Devon Cornwall Notes Queries, Vol. 11: A Quarterly Journal Devoted to the Local History Biography and Antiquities of the Counties of Devon and Cornwall; From January 1920 to October 1921 Editorial Note. - We desire to place on record our appreciation of the work done by Mr. Maxwell Adams and Mr. Tapley Soper as our co-editors, from 1908. We have received from them at all times the greatest assistance, and we are sure the readers of the Devon and Cornwall Notes and Queries realise what splendid work they have done, which has resulted in making it such a useful publication and one which compares most favourably with similar publications in other counties. John S. Amery. Edward Windeatt. I. Norman Corbels at Plympton. - A few years ago, when an old cottage at Plympton was being demolished, three Norman corbels were found, built into the wall. They were protected by being placed face inwards in the wall, so they are in very good condition. They must originally have been supporters of a corbel table. This was an arrangement to protect the walls from rain drippings. Two or three courses of stone at the top of the wall, under the eaves, were made to project, one above the other, beyond the surface of the wall; it was then easy enough to carry the roof further out, so that all drippings would fall clear of the wall. Naturally the lower course of projecting blocks required support, and this was afforded, sometimes by a row of arches, sometimes by corbels; and sometimes, as at Romsey Abbey, by both, the corbels being below the arches. Usually, but not always, the corbel is placed beneath each joint of the base-course of the table. At first Norman corbel tables were supported by square blocks; later corbels were nearly always in the form of heads.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Exeter glazing, and particularly the Great East Window, is of major importance. For the first time, this study establishes the correct dating, provenance and authorship of all the Great East Window's figure panels and most of its heraldic glass, and substantially rewrites the general history of the Cathedral's glazing. In the process, important parts of the Exeter glass are identified with the output of a previously unrecognized fifteenth-century studio whose work can be traced in Devon, Somerset, Dorset and Wiltshire.
