It is possible that, as the names are made to end in e, so the word 
saint may have been garnished with the same superfluous vowel. 
The Rev. Christopher Wordsworth, to whom these inscriptions 
have been referred, considers the first to mean S. Cuthbert, and the 
third S. Christopher—although the former figure has a sword, and 
the latter is that of a bishop; and that the errors in the accessories 
are due probably to the artist having had a conventional type in 
the abstract, without much knowledge of hagiology. 
Besides these there are almost perfect lights in the north aisle, 
containing heraldic emblems, but no figure subjects. In one of the 
aisle windows a single piece of heraldic glass was found with the 
Hungerford arms (three sheaves and three sickles) on it. There are 
in the south aisle several original oak benches, as well as parts of 
others, including many good linen pattern panels, in the nave. 
The exterior of the Church is remarkable for the regularity of its 
design—thus, the cornices—(although those of the nave, transepts, 
and clerestory are of different sections) are carried all round at the 
same level. The side windows of the chancel and the four windows 
in the transepts are alike in dimensions and design. Then the 
clerestory windows and those of the aisles are similar in design ; 
those of the north and south aisles only differ in height, owing to a 
local circumstance. Parapets are carried round the whole of the 
roofs, and are repeated on the tower, those, however, on the north 
aisle and transept are plain, the rest being embattled. Diagonal 
buttresses only occur in the porch, and may be taken as one of the 
indications of its being a somewhat later addition. All the rest of 
the buttresses stand square with the walls, and (excepting the low 
ones at the west angles of aisles) are carried up above the parapets,
