St Mary's church has a late medieval tower > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/831125 and a Saxon doorway; the chancel dates from the late 13th century as is evidenced by the angle piscina > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/831132 which is still in place. The interior was, however, extensively restored in the 19th century; medieval survivals are the C15 font, carved with arms of the Valoines family (seen here) and the original roof > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/831127 - dating from the same time. The church is open every day. For more information see: http://www.norfolkchurches.co.uk/barney/barney.htm
