"Much of the stained glass has been lost of destroyed but some C14th canopy work with birds has been housed in the window in the Vestry. Fragments of C14th glass which include two heads, crests of eagles, organ pipes, a bell and lamps have been collected in a window in the north aisle. The glass was taken down and stored by the curate, Thomas Norris, while the church was restored by William Millican in 1852."
