Looking west from the chancel, through the tower crossing arches, to the west window. Decorated Gothic geometric style by Sir George Gilbert Scott, restoring the west wall in 1861. The C19 chancel and C14 tower are not quite on the same axis as the C12 nave. This is quite usual in a complicated church which has had aisles and transepts built and modified at different times - The nave roof was often retained to protect both the original fabric and the ongoing building work next to it.
