Octagonal, early sixteenth century. Carved on the sides are the symbols of the four evangelists, alternating with rosettes. The carving is quite primitive. The main picture shows the lion: the other symbols are shown as notes. Matthew: an angel Mark: a winged lion Luke: a winged ox John: an eagle

The nave, looking west towards the tower arch and font. The main body of the church - nave, chancel, and south aisle - was built early in the 14th century, with the north aisle added in the 15th century. The nave is high and spacious and full of ligh, thanks to the 7-bay clerestory which was built in around 1500 at the same time as the double hammerbeam roof. The south aisle has two pillars. One is decorated with carved leaves and the other, with extraordinary figures of humans, animals and grotesque devilish creatures, an example of which is shown as a pop-up. The tower arch is remarkable: it frames the west window beautifully and reaches the top of the clerestory.
