This is one of the best sheelas I've seen to date. She has a large round head with well-defined features, large saggy breasts and her ribs are showing. Her hands curve around her body and hold her labia open, but the vagina is almost tucked underneath her, which hides it in deep shadow. The curve of her arms give her body a heart-shaped appearance.
She is mounted fairly high up on the southeast wall of a castle, overlooking the next door farmyard. She is best seen from the farmyard, although she can just about be seen from the road once you know where she is.
