    Description

    Photograph by Roger Stalley. View of nave, west gable and south aisle from the south-east. West gable has triple lancet window with rectangular and sexfoil rose windows overhead. Lancets set in deep splays have rere-arches treated with shafts and annulets, foliate and head carved capitals and water-holding bases. Surrounding hood moulding is roll-and-fillet design terminating in foliate and head carved label stops. Window in east elevation of south aisle of nave shows twin double-skinned lancets with trefoil heads and a quatrefoil window with arched cusps. Interior capitals have stiff-leaf foliage carvings; exterior roll-and-fillet hood moulding (damaged) terminates in a head carved label stop on the northern side; partial remains of windows in the south elevation of the south aisle also visible.
