Furnishings

室内陈设品

The chief glory of the Priory is undoubtedly the beautifully carved choir stalls which stand on both sides of the chancel. These probably date from the fourteen century and, together with the carved wooden arms and the misericords under the stall seats, repay careful study.

兰卡斯特小教堂最值得夸耀的部分无疑是那些竖立在圣坛两边、雕刻优美的唱诗班坐椅。它们可能可以追溯到十四世纪。这些坐椅和木雕扶手以及坐椅下面的供站立的人依靠的托板都值得反复鉴赏。

The hand embroidered tapestries which form part of the choir stalls together with the cushions and kneelers in the chancel, were designed by the late Guy Barton and many of the designs are of local significance. These, together with the embroidered items in the side chaples, have been worked over many years by the ladies of the church. This work is still continuing. A much more detailed guide to the embroideries can be obtained from the bookstall. The Priory also has a magnificent set of alter frontals.

那些唱诗班坐椅上手工刺绣的织锦还有圣坛上的坐垫和跪垫都是由盖伊●巴顿设计的，其中的很多设计都是本地特有的。这些手工艺品以及教堂两边的礼拜堂里面的刺绣品耗费了教堂里面的女工很多年的时光，而且目前这些工作还在进行中。您可以在教堂的书店里找到关于这些刺绣品的更详细的介绍。在小教堂祭坛的正面，您还可以看到一套非常华丽的帷幕。

Visitors should note the pulpit dating from 1619. To commemorate the 1999 Royal Visit this has recently been restored to its original condition with the addition of a canopy and back panel. The crown on top is the original of 1619, discovered a few years ago in the tower. The three brass chandeliers date from 1717. These are still lit for special services – particularly at Christmas – when they look magnificent.

游客应该注意到了教堂里那座可以追溯到1619年的讲道坛。为了纪念1999年王室对这里的访问，这个讲道坛最近被修复到了原来的样子，并且上面加了一个华盖，后面加了一个背板。讲道坛顶上的王冠是1619年的原物，是几年前人们在塔楼里发现的。教堂中央悬挂的三支黄铜枝形吊灯是1717年的。现在它们仍会在特殊的宗教活动中点燃，尤其是圣诞节，这时，这些吊灯看起来非常壮观。

The white stone statue of the Virgin and Child by Sean Willaimson was commissioned in 1994 to commemorate the nine hundredth anniversary of the Priory.

教堂里的白色圣母圣子石雕是为了纪念兰卡斯特小教堂900周年纪念日而委托肖恩●威廉逊于1994年制作的。

Unique to Lancaster are three Coptic crosses in the style of the fifth century, brought to this country by the King’s Own Regiment during the Abyssinian Campaign of 1868. There are at the eastern end of the Regimental Chapel.

兰卡斯特独特的收藏品是三个五世纪风格的科普特十字架。它们是由国王直属团于1868年的阿比西尼亚（现埃塞俄比亚）战役中带回的。它们现存于国王直属团礼拜堂的东侧。

Also worthy of note is the White Ensign in the St. Nicholas Chapel which was recently donated to the Priory, demonstrating the link with HMS Lancaster, a type 23 Frigate completed in 1992.

另外值得一提的是在圣尼古拉斯礼拜堂里面的白色军旗。它是最近捐献给兰卡斯特小教堂的，代表着教堂与皇家海军军舰兰卡斯特号的特殊关系。这是一艘1992年完工的23型护卫舰。
