These efforts involved reburying thousands of corpses, some from 12th century to the 14th century stone-lined graves, from the cathedral burial plot. Unusually, from the Middle Ages until the 19th century, anyone who died on church grounds had to be buried within the precinct. Notable among those reburied during the restoration was a knight who may have participated in tourney <a href="/wiki/Jousting" title="Jousting">jousting</a>, a man with <a href="/wiki/Leprosy" title="Leprosy">leprosy</a> (it was unusual for lepers to be buried anywhere near a cathedral due to the stigma associated with the disease), and a woman with a severed hand (a typical punishment for a thief, who would normally be unlikely to receive cathedral burial).<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Dean_and_chapter">Dean and chapter</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Hereford_Cathedral&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: Dean and chapter"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>As of 11 May 2022:<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Dean_of_Hereford" title="Dean of Hereford">Dean</a> — Sarah Brown (since 2021 installation)<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li>Precentor – Andrew Piper (since 9 March 2003 installation)<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li>Chancellor – The Revd Canon James Pacey <sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Eminent_persons">Eminent persons</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Hereford_Cathedral&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section: Eminent persons"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Among eminent men who have been associated with the cathedral – besides those who have already been mentioned – are <a href="/wiki/Robert_of_Gloucester_(historian)" title="Robert of Gloucester (historian)">Robert of Gloucester</a>, the chronicler, <a href="/wiki/Prebendary" title="Prebendary">prebendary</a> in 1291; <a href="/wiki/Nicholas_of_Hereford" class="mw-redirect" title="Nicholas of Hereford">Nicholas of Hereford</a>, chancellor in 1377, a remarkable man and leader of the <a href="/wiki/Lollards" class="mw-redirect" title="Lollards">Lollards</a> at <a href="/wiki/Oxford" title="Oxford">Oxford</a>; <a href="/wiki/John_Carpenter,_town_clerk_of_London" class="mw-redirect" title="John Carpenter, town clerk of London">John Carpenter, town clerk of London</a> who baptised there on 18 December 1378; <a href="/wiki/Polydore_Vergil" title="Polydore Vergil">Polydore Vergil</a>, prebendary in 1507, a celebrated literary man, as indeed with such a name he ought to have been; and <a href="/wiki/Miles_Smith_(bishop)" title="Miles Smith (bishop)">Miles Smith</a>, prebendary in 1580, promoted to the See of Gloucester – one of the translators of the <a href="/wiki/Authorized_King_James_Version" class="mw-redirect" title="Authorized King James Version">Authorized King James Version</a> of the Bible. </p><p>Another famous prebendary was <a href="/wiki/Cardinal_(Catholicism)" class="mw-redirect" title="Cardinal (Catholicism)">Cardinal</a> <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Wolsey" title="Thomas Wolsey">Thomas Wolsey</a>, who was appointed to a stall in 1510.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

The <a href="/wiki/Effigy" title="Effigy">effigy</a> is an example of a bishop in full vestments; the canopy is supported by slender shafts; the carving throughout is delicate. The south transept is thought by some authorities to be the oldest part of the cathedral, and it exhibits some Norman work, notably the eastern wall with its arcades. </p><p>Until its removal in the 1960s there was a <a href="/wiki/Hereford_Screen" title="Hereford Screen">wrought iron choir-screen</a>, painted and gilt.

The <a href="/wiki/Reredos" title="Reredos">reredos</a>, designed by the younger Cottingham, consists of five canopied compartments, with elaborate sculpture representing our Lord's Passion. Behind it is a pier from which spring two pointed arches; the <a href="/wiki/Spandrel" title="Spandrel">spandrel</a> thus formed is covered with rich modern sculpture, representing Christ in his majesty, with angels and the four Evangelists; below is a figure of King Ethelbert. Against the most easterly point on the south side of the choir is to be seen a small effigy of this king, which was dug up at the entrance to the Lady Chapel about the year 1700. The Bishop's throne and the stalls, of 14th-century work and restored, and the modern book desks and figures of angels on the upper stalls, deserve attention.

The effigy, by Mr. Noble, is a good likeness of the Dean, who was an ardent supporter of the education movement about the middle of the 19th century. The south-east transept contains memorials of several <a href="/wiki/Bishop_of_Hereford" title="Bishop of Hereford">Bishops of Hereford</a>.

It is the work of an ecclesiastic who is supposed to be represented in the right-hand corner on horseback, attended by his page and greyhounds. He has commemorated himself under the name of Richard de <a href="/wiki/Sleaford#Holdingham" title="Sleaford">Haldingham</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sleaford" title="Sleaford">Lafford</a> in Lincolnshire, but his real name was Richard de la Battayle or de Bello. He held a prebendal stall in <a href="/wiki/Lincoln_Cathedral" title="Lincoln Cathedral">Lincoln Cathedral</a>, and was promoted to a stall in Hereford in 1305. During the troubled times of Cromwell the map was laid beneath the floor of <a href="/wiki/Edmund_Audley" title="Edmund Audley">Edmund Audley</a>'s Chantry, beside the Lady Chapel, where it remained secreted for some time. </p><p>In 1855 it was cleaned and repaired at the <a href="/wiki/British_Museum" title="British Museum">British Museum</a>. It is one of the most remarkable monuments of its kind in existence, being the largest surviving of all the old maps drawn on a single sheet of <a href="/wiki/Vellum" title="Vellum">vellum</a>. The world is represented as round, surround by the ocean. At the top of the map (the east) is represented <a href="/wiki/Paradise" title="Paradise">Paradise</a>, with its river and tree; also the eating of the forbidden fruit and the expulsion of <a href="/wiki/Adam_and_Eve" title="Adam and Eve">Adam and Eve</a>.
