Here be dragons

Wyvern weathervane, Exeter museum

Modern ceramic dragon occasionally on house roof ridges, here a house near to Penn Common.

The old-looking and rusty doorknocker was in the picturesque Cotswold village of Chipping Campden, and the indoor picture is of a medieval weathervane now in Exeter museum. It’s a wyvern.

The doorlatch is from the medieval parish church at Meriden, and again looks like it might be ancient.
