Interior
Interior Description
The window tracery is Scott's richest Middle Pointed , and the windows have attached nook-shafts internally and there is also a continuous string- course internally. The piers are quatrefoil in plan, with flat fillets at the cardinal points and intermediary rolls. An interesting colouristic feature is the fact that the piers are of a strong pinkish tone, contrasting with the grey-ochre colour of the general stonework.
The chancel an side-chapel arches are filled in, the lofty central arch divided into panels coloured red, orange; yellow and blue.
The chancel appears to have been intended to have a wooden vault, a little more elaborate in character than that of the nave.
