Door in the south wall of the chancel

A lovely two light window in the south porch

The north wall of the nave. Here you can clearly see the outline of a medieval door, long since filled in.

The chancel is a delightfully simple example of Early English Gothic architecture, lit by three narrow pointed windows on each side.

The tomb of Sir John Blaket in the south transept.

The effigy of Sir John Blaket. His feet lie upon a now headless effigy of a dog.
