south arcades, it being fully developed Karly English of about 
1220. The arch is a pointed one of two orders, one square and 
the other chamfered, with chamfered label: the inner order is 
carried down the jambs and the outer stopped at the springing on 
small detached angle shafts on the west face with characteristic 
conventional carving and moulded bases; the abacus mould of the 
capital is carried round the jambs as an impost. The jambs lean 
outwards at the top, but this has no symbolism—it is due to the 
_ yielding of the foundations. This is the only feature of the period 
in the Church. 
The chancel appears to have been re-built in the last quarter of 
the fourteenth century (the east end, with its window, is modern), 
and the three two-light windows in the side walls are of this work: 
the easternmost of the two south windows has its outer sill higher 
than the rest, and the inner sill carried down for credence with a 
plain pointed piscina eastward of it. These windows have been 
_re-faced and have a modern look. There is a priest’s door of the 
‘same period in the south. wall. 
_ Reverting to the naye—the roll-mould string-courses over the 
arcades point to there having been a considerable height of wall 
above them, if not clerestory windows, in the twelfth century. 
This appears to have been re-built in the fifteenth century—the 
‘south clerestory has three windows and the north clerestory a central 
‘one only, all of three lights and with square heads. There is a 
t old and deep weather-mould over the aisle roofs at the level of 
about a foot above the point at which the fifteenth century re-building 
commenced. The distinction between the masonry of these two 
periods is very marked at the west end of the north side, and the 
very steep pitch of the earlier nave roof is indicated by the weather- 
mould on the east face of the tower—extending to within 2ft. of 
the top of the tower. The present oak roof of the nave is the same
