Entering the Church by the W. tower, the nave is seen well 
restored, with aisles to the N. and S. of unequal width, the 
colonnades, which are of four bays, being also composed of 
columns with unsymmetrical capitals, with graceful carving of 
conventional foliage. 
The S. aisle’s columns are late Norman, with square abaci, 
about the date of 1190, the columns of the N. aisle are of 
less diameter, and have octagonal abaci, with cushion capitals, 
evidently imitated from those of the S., and decorated with 
similar foliage. They may be of the 14th century. The E. 
window of the Chancel is of glass, painted by Bell, of Bristol, 
and is to the memory of Mrs. Heathcote, wife of a Vicar of 
_ the parish, who died 1854. 
_ At the E. end of the S. aisle is an Altar-tomb with the heraldic 
shields of the Walmesley family below, and a white marble 
effigy of the late Squire of Lucknam on the top, the work of 
H. H. Armstead, R.A. 
In the Organ Aisle to the N. of the Chancel are affixed to 
the wall many monumental tablets to the Bartrum and Young 
families. One epitaph is quaint in spelling and scanning.
