St Mary's church

St Mary's church > Link is situated set back from a rural lane with the Old Rectory adjoining in the north. It is famed for its architecture, with its clerestory and high arcades > Link and no discernible dividing feature between nave and chancel. The church as we see it today was built by Sir Ralph Shelton, High Sherriff of Norfolk in the mid-15th century. In the north-eastern corner there are several chest tombs > Link to Shelton family members, the south-eastern corner is occupied by a tomb to Sir Robert Houghton > Link. The probably most noteworthy feature of the church are its stained glass windows, the east window > Link and several of the aisle windows > Link containing medieval glass.
