Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St Margaret's church - the tympanum. St Margaret's church > 1366633 - 1366654 is only a good kilometre distant from the ruined St Mary's church > 1366332 most of the ancient glass of which is now incorporated in St Margaret's east window. The chancel houses a tomb and there is a piscina in the south wall. The octagonal font > 748852 dates from the 15th century and there are a number of old carved bench ends in the nave, all of them were defaced during the Reformation > 1366663. Extensively restored in the late 19th century not much of the original interior has remained. The most noteworthy feature of the church is the tympanum. It completely fills the chancel arch above the C14 rood screen, which retains much of its original colour and decoration > 1366660. The tympanum displays the achievements of Queen Elizabeth I, depicting the royal arms with a banner on each side. The arms of Anne Boleyn are depicted below, with the date 1587. At the base the Ten Commandments are listed. The church is open every day.
