Screen
15th Century
The 15th century carved oak screen is one of the finest surviving in the county. It consists of three bays on each side of a central doorway. Each bay is of two lights with ogee arches, and the crockets decorating the arches are superimposedon the tracery which fills the head of each bay. The original groined canopy is lost and has been replaced by a moulded softwood cornice.
Screen
c. 1535
Two parclose screens enclose the eastern bays of the north and south aisles. They date from c1535 and are early examples of the use of Renaissance decorative forms. In the head of each bay the place of tracery been taken by symmetrical scrollwork or heads carved in profile. In the centre of the north screen are two such heads of sinister aspect, touching with their noses a roundel containing the head of Christ.
Altar
1712
At the west end of the north aisle is an elegant marble altar of 1712. The top is supported on four baluster legs.
Altar
Jacobean
Oak table
Reredos
In the south chapel is a very elaborate reredos niche the sides of which are decorated with vertical bands of fleuron ornament. The top of the niche is in the form of an almost straight-sided depressed arch decorated with a symmetrical patterning. Above this is a sharply pointed crocketted gable enclosing a trefoil. The niche was evidently intended to contain a sculptured group.
Brass
In the south chapel is a 21 inch brass of a knight in armour with clasped hands and the following inscription, "Hic jacet Robertus Hayton Armiger qui obiit XXV die mensis Februarii Anno d'ni millesimo CCCCo vicesimo quarto cujus anime propicieturdeus amen". The brass is of some importance as being one of the latest brasses showing the camail of mail depending from the bascinet.
