The St Eligius stone
Set into the interior wall of the north porch is an old stone workpiece, depicting St Eligius (or Eloi) of sixth century France. He was said to have helped a blacksmith to shoe a recalcitrant horse. The saint, then Bishop of Noyon, removed the horse's leg, nailed the shoe on it and miraculously re-attached the leg to the bemused beast. The scene features this event, but has lost the heads - probably due to the destruction by Protestant iconoclasts after the Reformation.
The stone was found in a wall when the church was rebuilt in the eighteenth century under Nathaniel Ireson's supervision. Despite the extensive demolition and rebuilding in 1887-89, it has been retained to the better illustration of this ancient church.
