Church bench section
A choir stall is one of a row of enclosed wooden seats in a church, typically ornately carved, where clergy or choir members sit during services.
The stalls usually line both sides of the chancel, facing each other: The medieval choir stalls featured intricate misericords beneath the hinged seats.
