St John The Baptist Bere Regis Dorset.
The magnificent nave roof of about 1485 is quite unique for this part of the Dorset. It is generally considered to have been the gift of Cardinal Morton, which seems likely enough as the roof bears his coat of arms and other symbols associated with him. The spandrils are filled with vertical barred tracery and include pseudo hammer beam projections, carved into full length human figures representing the twelve apostles.
