St Agnes

Its lofty, rather stern tower will guide you there. There have been remarkably few changes to this church that was built in the early 15th century, largely at the expense of the influential de la Pole family.

The expense must have been considerable to cover the cost of transporting fine stone to a region where there is none, and paying craftsmen and artists to create features that are among the finest of their kind in East Anglia.

These include a wonderful roof with many angels (including one standing on the end of each hammerbeam), and a tall, exquisitely carved and painted screen with depictions of 20 saints in the panels.
