The three lower stages of the tower about 1325
South Arcade of the chancel and the two south chapels between 1325 and 1350.
The fourth stage of the tower and the clerestory about 1380
East wall of the chancel 1400
North Arcade of the chancel, the north chapel and the later north aisle (replacing the earlier narrower one) between 1420 and 1450
The staircase to the rood loft, about 1500
A new porch was built in 1858
The Church was restored in 1890-1891"
