buttress comes at the north-west angle of the aisle, but none at the 
south-west angle of the nave; there is a buttress dividing the nave 
and aisle, which has the appearance of the 13th century one with 
chamfers on the angles having been left and its upper part re- 
modelled in recent times. A plinth course is carried along this 
west end and on to the porch on the south. A square-headed 
Perpendicular window of three lights has been inserted in the wall 
of the aisle westward of the north doorway. 
During the latter half of the 15th century an ambulatory was 
formed across the angle between the chancel and the north transept, 
with segmental arches in both walls, giving access from one to 
the other and affording a view of the high altar from the transept, 
which was, of course, a chapel; this ambulatory is lighted by a 
square-headed two-light window. Doubtless at about this time a 
rood-sereen with loft was erected, but no part remains; the stairs 
to the loft, entered from the nave, exist in the north respond, 
corbelled out into the aisle, but are now blocked up. 
Under the Early English window of the north aisle are the 
remains of a recessed tomb of a plain type of early 15th century 
work bearing traces of arms at the back, painted, apparently a bend 
cotised or voided between two roses (?) 
The font is a Transitional Norman one—an octagonal bowl with 
central shaft and four detached shafts,almost without ornamentation 
and ruined by injudicious cleaning by tooling. 
The pulpit is a Jacobean one of oak with no special features. 
There is no material evidence of the tower having been carried 
higher than the ridges of the roof beyond the fact that it has old 
bells, but Canon Jackson, writing in 1862, says: “The present 
erection is only about 150 years old,” and “there was once a spire.” 
This tower is a remarkable mixture of features in Gothic work of 
all periods clumsily appropriated—the windows of one, the panelling 
of another—those in the belfry having classic key stones; niches 
of a classic type with Gothic pinnacles aud rusticated pilasters at 
the angles of the tower surmounted by pierced pinnacles, flanking 
-battlemented parapet of Gothic type. 
All the roofs in the Church are modern, and apparently the work
