It is a constructed crib with a painted back drop. We believe the back drop is the oldest part and goes back over 100 years. The statues for the crib are nearly as old. There is a document in the parish achive that lends credence to this (I have not seen it myself). The construction of the crib was adapted in 1991 to work with the changes to the alter (removal of railings, opening new door to the sacristy etc).
