The gable is terminated by The church is lighted by six windows-one in the eastern, two in the northern, and three in the southern wall. The windows belong to four different periods. In the northern wall, opposite the end of the altar-rail, is a sepulchral recess. In the south wall, to the east of, and close to, the entrance from the porch, are the remains of a simple stoup. The structure appears to be of one period: the end of the fifteenth or the beginning of the sixteenth centuries. To this period belong the two entrance doorways, the eastern window, and the window in the south wall of the chancel. The sepulchral recess in the north wall is composed of stones of an earlier date. The detail is rude and simple. The four-lobed flowers on the soffit, near the outer edge, placed about 5 in. apart, centre to centre, are characteristic of fourteenthcentury work (see Fig. 2). The apex of the arch is considerably to one side of the centre of the opening. The voussoirs do not follow the curve of the arch. Portions of a rude hood-moulding remain over the upper part of the arch. The general appearance is that of old stones re-used, and set in a manner not originally intended. The general character of the two entrance doorways is identical. The sizes of the openings vary but slightly. Each doorway has an obtuse two-centred arch. The label-mouldings are worked to the same section. The arch and jamb mouldings of each doorway are continuous. The wave moulding appears in both instances, but in the western entrance it is employed in connection with a plain chamfer. The stonework, especially of the western entrance, has suffered greatly from the weather. The mouldings of the eastern window, and the window in the south wall of the chancel, are identical. The label-mouldings correspond with those over the entrance doorways. The mullions have hollow chamfers. The outer jamb, arch, and head-mouldings contain a deep hollow, while the inner are splayed. The east window (Fig. 3) has five lights, contained under a fourcentred arch. All the lights extend to the containing arch. The head of each light is pointed, and has cinquefoiled cusping. The mouldings of the mullions do not die on the sill, but have square blocks, equal to the breadth and depth of the mullions, left on the sillstones to receive them. This window is erroneously described in The History of the Diocese of St. Asaph, p. 287, as "Early English. The south window of the chancel (Fig. 4) is comparatively small, and consists of two lights, each with cinquefoiled cusped arches, contained under a square head. Towards the west end of the south wall of the nave is a window differing in character, but probably of near date to the two windows described above. It is shown in Fig. 5. The window is raised a considerable height above the floor-level. Probably it does not occupy its original position, but has been placed at the present high level with the idea of partially lighting a western gallery. The design is that of two trefoil-headed lights. The jambs and mullions are simply chamfered. There is no enclosing order on the exterior, as in the case of the former windows. A rough relieving arch of local stone is built over the square head. The internal head consists of a stone slab, probably an old tombstone. The two windows in the northern wall probably belong to the very late sixteenth or early seventeenth centuries. In all likelihood this wall originally was blank. In any case, the two windows were formed to obtain extra light. The eastern window is shown in Fig. 5. Both windows resemble each other in general design. The eastern contains four, the western three lights. The heads of all lights are three-centred. The square-headed label-moulding over the eastern is absent from the western. The masonry above the internal heads was supported on oak lintels, but these had entirely decayed. The stones of the jambs are set on edge, and, therefore naturally were in a very dilapidated condition. In 1769 the congregation desired further light. For this purpose, the large round-headed window was in serted in the south wall (see Fig. 4). The jambs have small moulded caps on the exterior, and the arch has a keystone, over which, on a separate stone, is inscribed the date. The glass in lead frets is fixed but |
