The Quire of Rochester Cathedral dating to c.1200 features Purbeck marble human head and grotesque corbels and Reigate stone foliate label stops. The corbels depict the earliest Green Men in the Cathedral - and a rare Green Woman. The oriel window of Rochester Cathedral Chapter Library was restored c.1907 with grotesques from the recently demolished bell tower dating to c.1829 (DRc/Ac/22, DRc/Emf/73/8).
