West tower: 3 stages marked by strings, with pilaster buttresses at the corners on the north and south sides extending to immediately below the second stage string. Corbel course of carved heads beneath a plain parapet. In the west wall is a tall blocked archway indicating that the building was designed as a crossing tower. At second stage level, the north south and west sides of the tower each have a 3-bay arcade with shafts and scalloped capitals. On each side of the belfry is a 2-light window with a central shaft, within an outer round-headed recess. (Photo Apr 2010).
