Notes on Church:
Significant parts of the church date from the 13th and 14th cenuries. The building, particularly the exterior, was heavily restored by John Pollard Seddon in the late 1870s. A particularly notable feature of the church is its large and finely detailed Norman 'Aylesbury' font.

Introduction to Stained Glass:We show 18 windows. 9 of them are examples of 15 windows with Geometric Pattern glass, that share similar styles and colours. We estimate they were fitted around 1880 during the church's restoration.
