Some fine stained glass, mainly dating from the Victorian era. Some older medieval glass fragments can be seen in the tracery of the south chancel window. The adjoining window is by Kempe.

East Window - The Three Maries at the Tomb, probably by Percy Bacon. "Suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them. As the women bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two men asked them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He has risen!" A memorial to Lady Maria Welby who died 1920 and her son Richard a casualty of the First World War.
