Summary
| Description |
English: St Mary's church - east window detail St Mary's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1356351 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363703 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363765 has a round tower that dates from Norman times and is capped with a lead-covered spike but the building as it stands today was built in four stages, the latest being an extensive restoration in Victorian times. The chancel is believed to date from the 14th century. It houses a C17 tomb chest and monument to Sir Edmund Reeve and his wife Mary > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363731. The east window contains a mixed variety of medieval and continental glass > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363709 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363715 which was installed during the 19th century and came from a Norwich merchant. The octagonal font > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363782 is C15 but its cover is Jacobean, as is the pulpit > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363749. All the original benches were replaced during the 19th century restoration but the old carved bench ends > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363744 were retained and fixed to the new ones. Unusually, there is a clock on the west wall > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363776 - it dates from the end of the 17th century and is an interesting early survival in its original form. Fragments of early wall paintings have survived beside the south door. The church's greatest treasure is the Sexton's wheel > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1363791 - one of only two that have survived (the other one is at nearby St Mary's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1083222 in Yaxley, Suffolk, about 15 kilometres distant). St Mary's church is kept locked. |
