St Winwaloe

On the north wall are wall paintings, one a graphic and bloody ‘Warning to Sabbath Breakers’ showing various tools adding to Christ’s suffering (the message was ‘Don’t work on Sundays’), and one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

There are also fragments of other wall paintings.

Parts of the rood screen survive, as does a symbol of St Luke in a panel of medieval stained glass. Close to the church is a rare survivor: a guild house, dating from the 1500s.
These were once common near churches and were where parish feasts were held, and where ale was brewed and cakes baked. Most of these were demolished or turned to other uses when feasting and beer drinking on church property became socially and morally unacceptable.
