headed Norman window, now built up. On the 
stone which forms the arch of the window is a 
rudely carved dial, similar to that on the tympanum 
of the south door. 
We now come to the chancel, the north side of 
which is evidently Norman, the roof supported by 
a corbel table composed of three rounds receding 
under one another, the effect of which is very good. 
It was lighted on this side by two small windows; 
thatto the west is a plain round-headed Norman 
window; that farther to the east apparently corres- 
ponds with it; but on removing a piece of plaster 
which, as I supposed, filled up the arch, to my great 
surprise I found it was square-headed. I see no 
reason to doubt that it isof the same date as the 
other, though a square-headed Norman window is 
what I never before observed. The south side of 
the chancel has been re-built at a much later period, 
and has been mutilated by the insertion of a large 
square-headed window and a door for the admission 
of corpses, the chancel being still used for the fune- 
rals of those whose very natural wish it is, that their 
ashes may mingle with those of their fathers. 
There is, however, a priest’s door, now blocked up, 
the mouldings of which are good and in good pre- 
servation. The east end is quite plain, the coigns 
formed of good ashler work; the other masonry 
very rough and bad. There is no east window, and 
from indications of foundations extending beyond 
the present east wall, I think it not improbable that 
it originally terminated in an apse.
