Wikipedia describes the church: visit link

'St Katharine's church, set amid cedar trees, has a 12th century Norman nave and blocked north doorway with beautifully carved zigzag arches, and a south aisle and chapel added by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in 1859. The east window has some fine stained glass of 1860. It is the burial-place of Henry Boswell, "King of the Gypsies", who died in 1760, at the advanced age of 90; the remains of his wife and grand-daughter are likewise interred here.'

There are several, colourful windows which vary from single light to triple panes. Different Saints are depicted and several biblical scenes.
