Looking east down the south aisle rebuilt & refurbished after the disastrous fire of 1688 destroyed the 1529 church.
The Cruwys family pew, has behind it pews for servants at the manor house.
Some have names printed on them showing where families sat.
The box pews in the nave were available for rent at rates varying from a sixpence to a shilling per year. One seat is reserved for girls under 14 and another for young boys under 16.
