Scene Description: Source caption: "The church dates from the 13th century onwards, it was restored in 1891. The church has a tower, nave, aisles, south porch, chancel and north vestry. The tower is of five stages with a 15th century parapet corbel table and the remains of two gargoyles to each side. The lower stages have been dated to around 1280. There is a small stone spire which was never completed. The small pyramidal spire was replaced after an earlier one was struck by lightning.[...] The tower was restored in 1913, it has unusual clasping buttresses."
