On the east side of each transept arch is a C12 respond remaining from the former east bay of the nave arcade, now occupied by the tower.

Each has a capital added in C15.

Wall monuments include one in the chancel to Walter Savage, died 1640, with strapwork, Corinthian columns, angels heads, and a shield of arms.

Against the east wall of the south transept is a monument of marble and slate to William Taylor, died 1745, by S Chandler.

Attached to the north wall of the chancel is a wooden panel with carved tracery and eight ogee arches containing figures.

The choir benches, transept screens and pulpit incorporate some medieval woodwork including blind tracery carving.

Close to the pulpit is a turned oak alms box of c1700.

The font has a tapering bowl.

Close to the north doorway is the hexagonal stem of another font, with slender engaged shafts.
