The church was restored in 1844. Then in 1910 a new vestry was built on the site of the north chapel and can just be seen at the extreme right of the photo above. The vestry has a late 15th century north window in it. The old 12th century chapel vault stood in the vestry. The remains of the old vaulting shafts of the south chapel are still preserved on the south wall of the chancel. The 12th century chancel arch has a two-centred head, and responds have scalloped capitals and moulded bases. There was formerly a chancel screen stretching across the the nave and aisles at the first pier. This was taken down 1844.

The east windows are very small but do have a dramatic effect.
