Another for Church Micro.... series.
The original Norman building consisted of a chancel, nave, and possibly, a west tower. around the eaves of the church ran a corbel table with amusing grotesque figures. Many of these still stand, though they can be difficult to see in places due to later rebuilding work.
The most immediately striking interior feature is a wide horseshoe-shaped chancel arch, rebuilt with a pointed arch in the 13th century. This arch is supported on carved Norman columns in Transitional style, with uniquely carved capitals, decorated with odd apple-like orbs. in the east wall of the organ chamber is a small Norman window, moved here from Daglingworth Church with the latter building was remodelled.
The nave arcade is 15th century, and the chancel roof is 14th century, but much of the interior owes its current shape to extensive remodelling carried out by Canon Howman in the mid 19th century. The north [Musgrave] aisle is late Perpendicular, and features good Victorian stained glass by the Wailes company of Newcastle. On the east wall is a monument to WA and WH Wykeham-Musgrave, who installed the finely carved table.

“If anybody would like to expand to this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication.
There is also a Church Micro Stats & Information page found via the Bookmark list”
