Benchmark - St Gregory - Hemingstone, Suffolk - U.K. and Ireland Trigpoints on Waymarking.com

Cut benchmark on the northern corner of St Gregory's church tower.

"The building consists of a modest unbuttressed W. tower, a nave and chancel divided by a castellated tie beam and a change in floor level only (with the chancel raised two steps), and a small N. porch constructed in what appears to be Tudor brick, with diapering in dark headers and two-light windows formed of uncusped lights set in larger arches. Windows elsewhere in the church present a hotchpotch of thirteenth through to fifteenth century forms, which include to the south, three two-light windows, respectively from west to east, with Y-tracery, reticulated tracery and supermullioned tracery, and to the north, a three-light window with stepped castellated supertransoms beneath a segmental–pointed arch, to the west of the cross-gabled shed, and a two-light square-headed window with supermullioned tracery, to the west of the porch. The restored four-light chancel E. window has supermullioned tracery and castellated stepped supertransoms, and the three-light tower W. window has strong mullions and a supermullion above the central light. The tower rises in two stages to two-light reticulated bell-openings and battlements decorated with flint flushwork."
