Labradors brought in to meet and greet Abbey visitors
An abbey has appointed two Labradors as "assistant vergers", to meet and greet visitors.
Eric and Florence, who are owned by head verger Chris Skepper, also act as therapy dogs to support people that visit Tewkesbury Abbey in Gloucestershire.
They can be seen in their new roles on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
