Hughes east window - fragments of mediaeval glass. Mediaeval font-lock.

This beautiful little church was first mentioned in the 'Norwich Taxation' document of 1254.

The present building possibly dates from 1350 to 1500. There is a beautiful 14th century, exquisitely carved, wood panelled, rood screen. It is a work of great complexity with delicately carved flowers, berries and grapes, amongst entwining vines.

The building was restored during 1965/6.
