is the east window of 1723, of Venetian form with an Ionic Order of square
columns (inside and out). Within, the restoration of 1882 is expressed in the
chancel arch and a tall arch to the vestry, but there is the reveal of the Cll
window on the south side of the nave, & the stone jamb of a similar window
