A wonderful amount of ancient Christian stones to view here. NMR records "Stored in the church are two early 8th century slabs inscribed 'Donfrid' and 'Eadberehct'; several mid-late 8th century slab fragments; an early 10th century shaft fragment and 11th century cross shaft. A cross shaft and wheel-cross head are built into the South porch."
