Notes about this historic site

1 Chancel, nave, N and S aisles and porches, and W tower. Built about the middle of the 13th century, it then consisted of chancel, nave and S aisle, and soon after a N chapel was added. Nave and S aisle extended by two bays at the beginning of the 14th century, and a S porch added. About the end of the 14th century the N chapel was extended to form the N aisle, and the tower and N porch built. 1677: Chancel entirely rebuilt, nave clearstorey added, S aisle windows replaced and the aisles re-roofed. 1703: Much of the S side of the church rebuilt and the S porch extended. 1875: Extensive repairs, the chancel re-roofed, the nave roof ceiled, etc. In the belfry are corbels for a spire which was either never built or has been destroyed. 16th century pulpit. There was a priest here in 1086.

3 Chancel dated 1677 above the E window. The proportions of the chancel inside are indeed curiously like those of a drawing room. Clerestorey windows could be 17th century, though they look rather 16th century.
