St. John the Baptist's church has an Early Perp west tower with battlements and diagonal buttresses. The nave, its two-bay arcade, and chancel are mainly by W.B. Baker, 1864-67. The font is 19th C octagonal and copies a 14th C style. There is stained glass in the church by Burlison & Grylls, 1891; Edward Payne, 1988; Lavers & Westlake, 1890; and Rodrick Friend, 1993. The churchyard has many fine 17th and 18th C chest and pedestal tombs.RETURN TO MONTAGE INDEX
