The Fylfot File - THE SWASTIKA IN THE BRITISH ISLES

In 2003 Stephen Taylor published a booklet on these five ‘Swastikas' in the church of Saint Mary the Virgin in Great Canfield, making clear that they had come from the ‘Gammadion' of the ancient classical world; and that they might well be termed ‘Fylfot-Crosses' within the cultural history of Western Europe.
