Brief description
Grade I Listed Parish Church, with a fine painted screen. "The church is best known for the twelve panels of its late-Gothic rood screen, rivalled in quality only by the rood screen of St. Helen's Church in Ranworth.[3] The twelve panels, probably from between 1440 and 1450, appear to have been influenced by Flemish work, and depict St. Apollonia, St. Zita, St. Barbara, and the nine choirs of angels. (The representations of the Dominions and the Seraphim were defaced during the English Civil War, most likely due to their inclusion of “papistical” symbols such as the tiara and a censer). In the South Nave there are more recent (ca. 1490) representations of King Henry VI, St. Edmund, St. Edward the Confessor, and St. Olaf.[4"
