Christina Carpenter
Christina Carpenter or Christine Carpenter (fl. 1329–1332) was a 14th-century anchoress, also known as a religious recluse, in the village of Shere, Surrey, in southern England. She came to further notice when she left her cell which may well have been built for her in the church and wrote to the Pope to have herself readmitted.
