The 14th Century
Early in the 14th century the west tower was added. It is of three diminishing stages with a plain parapet, with diagonal and square set buttresses to the ground stage only, and the tower arch is of two chamfered orders springing from moulded imposts.
The belfry windows are single pointed louvered lights and the west doorway is a simple pointed opening. Hutchins' editors (2nd edition: 1813) say "the west door has a pointed arch over it, four quatrefoils, in two compartments, with blank shields in the spandrils", but the latter part of this somewhat confused description may refer to the later west window above it.
Late in the same century, a large north porch was added but it was subsequently converted to a vestry which, in turn, was adapted to its present form as a north chapel. Although so much altered, the east wall survives in situ and includes an original diagonal buttress and a wide, but shallow, plain pointed window. In the churchyard there is the stepped base of a 14th century cross and, shortly after the present shaft and cross head were added to it in 1925, the original buried cross was discovered and has been built into the west wall of the tower.
