early c16 wall painting on north wall of nave, showing seven deadly sins. a naked figure -pride ? - has dragon's heads growing from it, each swallowing a sinner. one even grows from the top of the figure's head, and the upper left hand one is gluttony, holding a flagon of drink. going by other such murals, the dragon coming from his chest is anger, from his right hand greed, from his left hand envy, from his loins lust, leaving only sloth.
