204 Architectural Notes on Places visited by the Society in 1891. 
This is a charming feature which with its mellowed colour and lichen 
and the roses and sycamore growing near combine to make a 
delightful picture. 
The double moulded plinth of the south transept is continued 
along the south wall of the chancel, but the upper plinth and parapet 
are at about 15in. higher level in the latter. (In this, as in other 
respects, the drawings in Carter’s book are inaccurate.) The upper 
plinth is stepped up on the east end to the window sill, and beyond 
this it again rises to form the set-off of the lower stage of the turret 
stairs at the north-east angle and is continued along over the door 
inside the sacristy; this, and the fact that the north plinth is not 
carried over, seems to indicate some change of plan in erecting the 
sacristy. There is a curious freak of the workman in this upper 
plinth on the north side by the sacristy, where a break of about lin. 
only occurs, apparently to correct an error in not carrying the under 
moulding vertical—it is worked out of a solid stone, and is not 
produced by displacement as might at first appear to be the case 
The lower plinth of the chancel is carried round the sacristy—the 
west parapet of the latter is pierced, whilst that on the east is plain. 
The chancel, south transept, and sacristy are faced with wrought 
stone-work on the outside, the nave and north transept with 
flint. The sacristy has a cusped single-light window in each of three 
faces with labels inside and outside. In the east wall there is a 
doorway to the staircase outside which leads on to the roof of the 
chancel and by this means to the tower. 
The north. transept has two two-light windows in the east wall, 
two in west and a three-light in the north. It is worthy of note that 
whilst the latter has mouldings continued throughout its various 
parts, the east windows only have them on the tracery, and plain 
splays on the jambs and mullions, and the west windows have only 
splays throughout. There is a good niche between the windows in 
the east wall; also a piscina with ball-flower ornament, and divided 
by a shelf, on the south side of the position of the altar and a 
corbel on the north. Under the north window is a magnificent 
recessed tomb, coeval with the structure, and it is doubtless that 
of the founder. It has a segmental arch spanning the full width
