As one enters Image] the arch of the porch has carved heads on both imposts. The ones seen here are on the northern side of the arch. They are thought to predate the main fabric of the church (which is c.1300) by about 200 years as they are likely Norman. For their compatriots on the south side of the arch, see Image] See also shared description below:
