Building Fabric and Features
Stained Glass

In the apex of the chancel apse light depicting The Holy Spirit in the form of a dove.

The east window of the north transept above the four figures associated with music, such as King David and St. Cecilia, in a pleasant muted colour scheme of greys and browns giving an effect of grisaille.
Stained Glass
1930
The east window of the south transpet has four roundels with the child Christ in the centre, angels above, shepherds on the left, the wise men on the right and Jesse below; by Christopher Webb.
Stained Glass
1936
The roundel in the east wall of the south porch is by Christopher Webb, of 1936, and depicts The Annunciation, a beautiful example of his Flemish style, as with Comper's windows in this style.
Stained Glass
The nave windows and the four lights of the south transept south wall have plass depicting The Twelve Apostles, the single figures set against backgrounds of glass roundels brought from Venice in 1925. Although the loss of the original backgrounds is regrettable, this form of background is infinitely preferable to clear glass and indeed blends. well with the character of the figures. The figures were inserted in 1869 and are by Hardman.
Stained Glass
c.1880
Three small lights behind the font depict Christ with the Children.

Lectern
1869
The lectern is a brass eagle.
Font (object)
An elegant design in Georgian style executed in white marble, with a gadrooned bowl supported on a baluster stem supported by black marble structs. The domed cover with a dove painted on the soffit is suspended from a baldacchino fitted beneath the west gallery. This encloses a circular black marble step and consists of four fluted columns with Corinthian capitals supporting a dentilled entablature with the text ILLE VERO BAPTIZABIT on the west face. The underside is painted with gold stars on a blue ground.
