The Holy Cross

A C13 nave

chancel church may have been extended in the C14 by the south transept.

The vestry is probably a late medieval structure but may have preceeded the tower.

The chancel has a C19 3-light Decorated east window with bar tracery, a chamfered lancet on the north side has buff brick jambs but the head of the window appears to be medieval.

3 windows to the north side of the nave, the easternmost is a tall 2- light square-headed cusped Perpendicular window, the 2 westernmost windows are chamfered lancets, the masonry C19 externally but probably medieval internally.

On the south side the westernmost window is a trefoil-headed C19 lancet with hoodmould and label stops, to the left of the porch a circa late C13 trefoil-headed lancet.

Moulded segmental- arched west doorway with a hoodmould, label stops and carved spandrels.

The timber drum pulpit with blind tracery panels is probably also early C20.

C12 font, the bowl with a carved frieze, the base with palmette carving and profile heads to the corners.

Some unusual rustic circa early C16 or later benches survive, carved with leaves and architectural detail.

The south transept is the Arscott family pew and contains some C17 and C18 woodwork which has been incorporated into the seating.

Wall monument in transept to John Arscotte, sheriff of the County, died 1699, Corinthian columns flank an inscription panel below a scrolled pediment with armorial bearings above.

Several good C18 wall monuments.

Window above the font late 1880s by the Hardman Co.
