'Although all the windows in the chancel are Perpendicular, the sedilia predates them and is late Decorated, with 3 cusped ogee arches. There is a piscina beside it.
In the south aisle is a double piscina with fluted basin set in paired lancets. Next to it an aumbry, with a chamfered 2-centred arched tomb recess.
The nearby tomb is that of Sir Everard Digby, d.1509'
