chancel, C14 tower

The hood moulds are similar to that over the C13 piscina inside the chancel.

a two light early C15 west window

Early features include a late C13 piscina in the south east corner of the chancel with engaged shafts supporting a pointed trefoil arch and bar-tracery.

The chancel arch also probably dates to the C13

The tower arch is probably C14 and has half-round responds and polygonal capitals.

The stained glass in the east window and south nave is early C20.

HISTORY: The Church of St Gregory originally consisted of a C13 nave and chancel only

the west tower was added in the C14.

REASONS FOR DESIGNATION: This church is designated at Grade II for the following principal reasons: * It has C13 origins and although it was extended and restored in the mid C19, some of its medieval fabric survives.

The C14 tower also survives intact,

includes an unusual external entrance to the stairs. * Despite C19 alterations and refurbishment, the interior retains some fine features including a C13 piscina in the chancel.
