Photograph by Roger Stalley. View of the presbytery, crossing tower and first two bays of the nave from the north-west. The presbytery elevation is supported by angle and clasping buttresses and shows the outlines of three lancet windows (now built up) with a corbel table of carved heads above it. The crossing tower has a stepped buttress at the north-east corner and a stair turret at the north-west and is topped by crow-stepped battlements. The outline of the first two bays of the nave are visible but are built up.
