Retrieved 15 March 2014.</ref> A 13th-century [[Early English Period|Early English]] doorway was retained from an earlier building. The 15th and again the 16th century brought new work and renovation. This included installing an [[altar tomb]] to [[William Honnyng]] in the South or Lady Chapel and one to Nicholas Cutler to the north-west of the nave. The church was restored in 1868 by James Colling, a London architect. A notable added feature is a remarkable late 15th-century [[rood screen]], with a loft and rood designed by [[Ninian Comper]] in 1925.<ref name=churchlist/> The tower of the church is {{convert|107|ft|m|abbr=off}} high to the tip of the pinnacles.<ref>Julian Flannery, 2016.
