There was no aisle on the north side. [In] the 15th century … the mason was set to work again to raise the walls of the nave and to make a range of clerestory windows. A new arcade of four bays was erected. (5)
Parts of the building belong to the early 13th century, or even the late 12th. The priest's door … piscina and aumbry are Early English. Considerable alterations took place in the early years of the 14th century. The building of the tower [was] at the beginning of the 16th century. (6)
