Description
No one knows who built the present church. It is of rectangular shape with an unusual shaped door, being rectangular in an arched frame, the timber for which was probably used as part of a porch on the church entrance before being set in it's present position. The roof is made up of three mediaeval trusses with curved collar beams. The windows are a mixture of old and new, with the north and south windows being modern replacements, whilst the east window was rebuilt in 1896 by Jones and Wallis of London to reproduce the original 15th century version. The other features of the church include the original 15th century coping and remains of the cross socket on the east end, and the font, which has been dated to the 14th century. It is popular for weddings and services are still held here.

Wonderful! Rendering everything in gray scale except the stained glass window helps to make this an outstanding photograph! F/V
