Marston St Lawrence, Inside St Lawrence's Church


The fine Decorated font has a strange modern cover recalling the openwork spires for example in East Anglia made out of what seemed to be plywood or MDF at a quick glance. Medieval screens to the north aisle, an unusual Jacobean Screen to the tower, and some handsome memorials mainly gathered on the walls of the chancel.

A mystery concerned the strange weathering of the Easter Sepulchre and Sedilia in the chancel, suggesting this was for a long time without a roof. Yet the east wall has two very fine image niches in situ with their detailing crisp and undamaged.
