"Tower: late C12/early C13 to bottom 3 stages, which have prominent stepped angle buttresses and an integral stair turret to south-west corner; scattered lancet and narrow round-headed openings either original or C17 with rectangular opening to first stage on south side; below this is a slightly cambered doorway with nail-studded plank and muntin door and lintel recording the names of the church wardensin 1692; this is probably the date of the re-building of the top stage when the balustrade, crocketed corner pinnacles and 2-light "belfry windows were added."
