The sides of each window of the church Image, including those of the upper clerestory, have these 'gargoyle-type' carved heads, or more abstract plant-like designs. They were retained from inside the earlier building when it was rebuilt in the C19th and have thus been little eroded by weathering. The head on the left has quite unnerving blue-coloured eyes.
