1913) has 2 moulded and castellated beams with crown posts and a moulded
wall plate. The south door, of circa 1430, is carved with Tudor roses,
foliage and pomegram in the moulding. The interior has a C15 font and
a C17 octagonal pulpit. On the north wall of the nave there is the remains
of a C16 wall painting of St Christopher, now almost illegible. Graded
for its architectural and historical value.
