"What is perhaps the church's most beautiful window is in the south nave wall, east of the porch: a Decorated window of two-lights, with lovely moulded curvilinear tracery of c.1320-30. It is from this, and from the tower west window, that some of the 19th Century transept windows were copied. The single west window of the porch was inserted in 1870.
The transepts (1870) have two-light east and west windows, and three-light north and south windows. Over the doorway to the south transept is the inscription;
Domus Dei Porta Coeli 1870
(This the House of God and Gate of Heaven)"SOURCE - (
