The Nave

This is the principal space within the body of the Church, where the faithful gather for worship. The space has been extended to the north and south by the addition of aisles. In 1926 the limed oak pulpit and screen were put in by the generosity of Canon Luckock who also gave, in 1952, the beautiful lectern with its carved magnolia, as a memorial to his wife. Note too, the arcades with their cylindrical piers and capitals. The nail-head ornament on the north side is of the C13th, whilst the upturned leaf motif on the south side suggests an early-mid C14th date.
