Overview
Grid reference: SP 811 709
The medieval church has a fine west tower circa 1500. Internally restored by William Slater in 1859/60 ( he was born in the village ) and later the chancel more elaborately by F. Butler with good external sculpture by J. Forsyth, The South chapel was added in 1872 to designs by Salvin for Lady Milton who painted the windows herself under the auspices of Heaton, Butler & Bayne. Internally note the medieval bench ends and the continental gothic tower screen, a memorial to C. Bower Ismay ( of Titanic fame ). His grave in the church yard north of the tower is a remarkable creation by A.H. Gerrard, 1926 – a block like structure with a frieze of animals including horses, lions and antelopes. On the further side of the graveyard is a memorial stone to the American journalist Edwin Lawrence Godkin ( 1831-1902)
