Full Description

A large cruciform structure comprising nave with clerestory, N and S aisles, S porch, N and S transepts, central tower and chancel with small vestry, all so vigourously restored that little original surface remains. Crossing tower is Early English and the clerestory of the same date; nave arcade was late C13; screen contains Perpendicular fragments; altar rail C17, Jacobean pulpit. The chief point of interest is the tombs, C16 tombs of Chaworth family in N transept. In S transept are large monuments to Lord Scrope and wife, and to Admiral Lord Howe. (1) (2) (3)
So vigorously restored in the 1860's by the Rev. Thomas Butler that little of the original surface remains. (1)
