During recent restoration, a Norman coffin of Barnack stone (limestone from Lincolnshire) was discovered ten inches beneath the floor on the south side of the aisle under the box pews. This indicates that, with the piscina by the pulpit, the sanctuary was under the nave arch and the chancel was added after the original building. The coffin was laid in the chancel by the north wall with the carved lid above the level of the brick floor.
