bellcote at the apex. The south wall is of 2 bays with moulded plinth and
has windows similar to the west window, but of 3 lights. The gabled porch
has a chamfered outer doorway with Tudor arch. The inner doorway is
moulded with segmental arch. The east wall is coped with kneelers and has
a C19 window of 3 cinquefoiled lights under a Tudor-arched head with
Perpendicular tracery. The north wall has 2 windows similar to those of
the south wall. Various pieces of re-used carved stonework are set into
the outer walls, including part of a nodding ogee canopy over the east
window. Interior has C16 roof with king posts rising from moulded tie
beams and with queen struts. At the east end of the south wall is a re-set
trefoiled piscina with hood. Opposite, projecting from the north wall, is
an elaborately carved stoup, again re-set. The pews were reconstructed in
the C19 restoration, but retain their carved ends, many of which are
carved with initials and with dates between 1688 and 1692.
