"The chancel has a 14th century east window with intersecting tracery; the side windows are of c.1500 and one has a dropped cill (to act as sedilia) with linked piscina.

At the east end of the aisle is the chapel of St. John; it has good linked piscina and sedile, and above is a disused doorway, perhaps to a former roodloft.

In the chapel of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is a good late 13th century piscina; the parclose screen is of c.1500 as in the north aisle."

The 14th century porch is plain, beside the door ia a stoup, the cill has been broken away.
