Description:
Nave looking East. See also NTGM021626.
Image originally believed to have been taken c 1935, but website contributor Garry Humphreys relates that it must have been taken pre-20th century: 'this photograph must have been taken between 1872 - when the south aisle (visible on the right of the photograph) was added - and 1887, when the transepts were inserted (necessitating the move eastwards of the chancel) and the nave roof raised to accommodate clerestory windows, neither of which is in evidence here. The later extensions also included a new baptistery; in the picture the font is still at the west end of the nave. Indeed, the latest possible date could be 1883, when Charles Eamer Kempe's east window was installed - in the photograph the amount of sunlight streaming through suggests that this window, with its rich reds and blues, has not yet been installed.'
