More about this scene
The three piers of the nave nearest to us were retained from the earlier 14th-century church when the great rebuilding took place in the late 15th century. This style of building, with no chancel arch and a continuous roof, was common in large churches of this period. The stone reredos dates from 1879; its design is based on the description of the pre-Reformation reredos by Roger Martin of Melford Place, whose brass is in the south chapel. The tomb of Sir William Cordell (d1581) is on the right side of the sanctuary.
