Viking Head decoration (70-72 Granby Street)

A subtle reminder of Leicester’s period under Danish Law in the 9th century. The city became one of five fortified towns important to the Danelaw. The image of the Vikings was mostly created by Victorian Britain. This head decoration is a good example of this mythologized figure.
