North aspect. Built of coursed ironstone rubble. Nave with twin bell cote, Perpendicular Gothic straight-headed windows. The larger window may have replaced an archway to a chantry chapel. The many, medieval, alterations to the wall led to cracking, which has been repaired today with lime mortar. This will tone down with age, unlike cement mortar, containing alumina, which stays white.
