Architecture
The three-storeyed priest's house on the north side is a unique feature of the church. Carved animals and mythological beasts, carved in the early Tudor period, can be seen on the exterior of the North wall. One such carving is a sow with its piglets. This is a notable feature as the former pub opposite the church is called the Sow and Pigs, though it is unknown whether the pub was named after this carving or if the sow and its piglets were carved when the pub already existed. Notable People
