The Early English tower has on its east side the line of the original thatched roof; the three south windows are of the Decorated period. The chancel collapsed in the 17th century and the beautiful east window with its reticulated tracery was reconstructed in the new east wall. The panelling and altar rails together with the three decker pulpit and the box pews were all brought from the old chapel at. Corpus Christi College Cambridge in 1824.
