the font has tracery patterns that are mostly dec., but one or two mullions cut the arch head, so allowing for survival of forms this is probably late c14. the cover seems stuart rather than jacobean for much the same reason.

this c12 norman doorway on the north west corner of the nave is several decades later than the tower. it is cut into the pre-conquest nave, which still boasts this c10 round window below the c15 clerestory.

the tower is c.1110, the chancel circa mid c14 , though the tracery is totally renewed and suspect. the snow was genuinely cold.
