Long Description:The windows vary in colour and size with the east window being a
single light in a triple light design. Several other true single
light windows appear around the church. These are brightly coloured
and include St Luke, a winged warrior, a simple shield and memorial
panel to Romola Russell.
Dating to the 13th century St Michael's church was thoroughly
restored in 1857 and 1864 by Butterfield. It is built of ironstone
and has an image niche in the north east corner of the north aisle
by Sir Albert Richardson, the famous architect who is buried in the
churchyard.
