This imposing and well decorated C14 tower was restored in late C19 but the church’s appearance was faithfully retained as it was in Relhan’s time, when the W door was a main entrance. Its rather military embattled upper storey is influenced by Ely Cathedral. Stone in the polygonal pinnacles looks like a later addition and is very weathered, which may explain the need for restoration 1898-1900. Gravestones have spread around this area.</p><p>Bradley and Pevsner 2014</p></p>
