Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St Margaret's church - porch and tower The grid line separates the church from its churchyard, most of which are in the adjoining grid square to the south. This view was taken within the square (just).


St Margaret's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/855777 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/855787 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/855802 was extensively restored in 1876 by Diocecan architect Herbert J Green. The building material used was knapped flint. The roof is thatched (St Margaret's is one of only 53 completely thatched churches in Norfolk) and there is a dormer window - seen here - (installed in 1908 to provide better lighting for the gallery) above the porch. Besides the C11 Norman south doorway > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/312307 and a C17 brass there are no older survivals. The font > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/855807 dates from the 19th century; the east window > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/855793 is modern (1960) and was installed in memory of Dr T E Royden, a churchwarden of many years. The Bishop, Rt Revd G C Fisher of Burgh Hall, gave the reredos of white marble and alabaster > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/855795. The church is kept locked but a key is available.
