Pew, traditional place of preacher, inside Ser(mon)?

[roslyn251254]

pew would be the place of the preacher ? inside ser (sermon ?

[Lie-in King]

Further - Chambers has the "ser(mon)" abbreviation as well.

[Chaseman]

Thanks all. However the place of the preacher is the pulpit. It’s the congregation that sits in the pews so not a good clue. I will let Tim Moorey know!
Thanks for Bear LIK
