The 19th Century
In 1841, the church was considerably enlarged by the addition of the south transept opening centrally off the nave and displacing a former south entrance porch. It is mainly of brick and the disposition of buttresses and windows, one of which has been blocked by a buttress, indicate subsequent alteration or strengthening.
The ceiling matches that of the nave, with painted bosses, one dated 1841, and is skilfully connected to it in the form of a cross vault.
A contemporary gallery with a straight front occupies almost half its area and an organ gallery at the west end of the nave, with a splayed front and supported on cast iron columns, is probably of similar date.
The work of this period is likely to have included the conversion of the former north porch to a vestry, involving removal of the wall and replacement by the present braced beam to support the nave roof. The north window, together with a similar one of high level in the south wall of the transept, may have also formed part of this work.
According to Kelly's directory the church was repaired in 1850 and 1865, the later involving more substantial work for which a faculty was obtained. It is dated 8 June 1865, the architect was T H Wyatt and the estimated cost of £125 was for repair and restoration of the walls, renewal of all seats in the nave, renewal of floors, removal of a partition between the former vestry and nave (to form a north chapel) and the addition of a new vestry on the south side of the chancel.
