1. The outside of the west wall shows the outline in the stonework of the earlier, smaller Norman church and
the original Norman window.
2. The older and slightly smaller of the two Harford tombs in the Chancel. This is to John Harford and the “towme”
was made by John Gildon of Hereford in 1573. It was commissioned by his son Richard.
3. The larger of the two Harford tombs in the Chancel to the memory of Richard and Martha Harford commissioned by Martha.
It dates from 1578. Probably only the effigy and the inside of the arch are the work of John Gildon. He may
have lost the contract and the strange caryatids and green men were carved by other, less skilled, hands.
4. The carvings on the pulpit are Jacobean and possible made in Flanders. This is the Adoration of the Magi.
5. This is the Agony in the Garden.
6. This is the Crucifixion
7. This is possibly the Flight of Hagar and Ishmael.
