Background
Architecture
Inside the church is a three-bay arcade between the nave and the south aisle. In the south aisle is a trefoil-headed piscina. There is a later monument from the early 19th century by John Bacon, junior. There is a ring of eight bells. Six of these were cast in 1796 by Thomas Mears I, and the other two in 1951 by Mears and Stainbank, all at the Whitechapel Bell Foundry. A plaque records that in 1928 the existing bells were restored and rehung in memory of Gilbert Culceth Holcroft who was killed in World War I.
