The Way

The Way is represented by the labyrinth or maze which symbolises the difficult spiritual journey through life. This design is from one of three corbels from the chapel which take their subjects from the ‘I am’ sayings of Jesus: ‘I am the way, the truth and the life’ (St. John 14:6)" Her inspiration for this maze is from an illustration from Architecture, Mysticism & Myth (1892) by William R. Lethaby. Mary Watts (1849-1939) Designer of the Chapel.
