The little Bee carving was a trade mark of the cabinet maker who made the fittings for St. Matthews Church in Hastings. There are supposed to be seven of them in the church but I could only find this one and, even then, I had to have help to find it. The grape carvings on the pew ends is in response to the very large wine growing areas of the region. I am not sure whether the church is celebrating the wine or the commercialism.
