"A remarkably lavish early C14 chancel attached to a humble church ... The nave was deprived of both aisles at some stage. They were of three bays and had short octagonal piers" (Nikolaus Pevsner). The arcades were, as this picture shows, filled with red brick, perhaps at the same time in the sixteenth century that the tower was partly rebuilt in brick. Frost was beginning to melt as the sun reached the sloping churchyard on a spectacularly bright morning in early December.
