of the nave into the transept. The latter has a three-light Middle 

 pointed window, having shafts internally with foliated capitals and 

 a hood. Under this is a fine sepulchral arch with ogee crocketed 

 canopy and good mouldings. The chancel seems to be of somewhat 

 debased character. Its arch is a tall one of Third pointed 

 style, upon shafts. On each side of the chancel are two windows 

 of two lights, which have a Flamboyant look, and contain some 

 pieces of stained glass. The east window is square-headed of three 

 lights, the lights wide and trefoiled. There is an ogee niche 

 on the south, cinquefoiled, with shelf and octagonal piscina. There 

 is a priest's door on the south. The screen is of debased character

 westward of the door; and the jambs and muUions of the three-
