to have been re-built. This I found was in bad condition and 
had it again re-built. In doing this work two of the flue 
stones were found lying sideways in the wall and they have now 
been re-placed in their proper position, but nothing was found to 
show how the flue was finished at the top. 
It is conjectured that the recess before mentioned was intended 
as a place for the altar, and the broad shelf for a retable. The 
flue being used for hoisting up a lantern to guide the wayfarers 
over the hill. pan 
There is in the corner of the North transept a somewhat 
similar flue of rather smaller diameter, but here again there is 
nothing to indicate how it was finished at the top. 
In Baring Gould’s recent work on “ Modern Survivals,” &¢., he 
refers to several instances of flues built in churches in connection 
with lamps. 
The walls of the chancel and transept appear to have been 
intended for finishing at a lower level than the present eaves, and 
the East and North gables have apparently also been intended 
for roofs of a lower pitch, and afterwards raised. 
The present main timbers of the roof probably belong to an 
early period of the building, but the first intention seems to have 
been to cover the chancel with stone slabs resting on arches in a 
somewhat similar manner to the tower roof at South Wraxall 
Church. 
Three of the springers of these arches were found near the 
East end on removing a casing of loose rubble stones, but the 
scheme does not appear to have been carried out (probably owing 
to the walls being found too weak) and the walls were raised up 
to receive the timber roof. 
In the North transept are the remains of a good three light 
early 15th century window which I have had carefully restored. 
At the West end of the nave is a very good 15th century 
doorway with shields in the spandrels; and above this, but some- 
what out of centre, is a large and handsome square projecting
