"The steeple is magnificent, a fine tower rising to a soaring, exhilarating spire. It is set back minimally behind the parapet. The crocketed outline and attendant pinnacles, slightly askew, shoot the eye upwards when seen from directly below. Even the lucarnes are kept small to avoid interrupting the ascent. These structures have as much art and artifice as a Greek column" (Simon Jenkins: "England's Thousand Best Churches").
