North east aspect. C16 chancel, rest 1741. By John Wing the Elder, of Leicester, for William Fortrey. The windows are Tudor arched with Perpendicular Gothic Revival details. The tower has details taken from Classical (Graeco-Roman) architecture. Tall round-arched bell-openings, the key stones being linked to the cornice above. Parapet with cornice rising at the corners and 4 obelisks in the middle and 4 corner pinnacles : fluting, volutes and pagoda-like tops, similar to tulip vases. (Photo Jul 2007).
