The porch dates from the first half of the 15th century, when the south transept of the church was extended westwards to form an aisle. Above the entrance is an effigy of a man with a book, probably representing St Michael, above a niche containing a sundial of around 1800. The porch contains the Georgian slate Decalogue tablets which were removed from the chancel in the late 19th-century restorations and a late Norman pillar piscina which now serves as a holy water stoup.
