John Leybornc Popham, am! it may now be considered one of the handsomest and most complete in the diocese of Salisbury. In the chancel a perpendicular window of three lights has been inserted at the east end and filled with stained glass by Willemcnt, in his best style. There is a Painswick stone altar, with a reredos of the same material, divided into niches and highly adorned in poly• chrome. Two piscinas were discovered in uncommon situations, one on the south side of the east wall, with its original wooden shelf; this is now shewn through a perforation of the reredos ; the other a mere circular shallow basin with drain, cut in the sill of the north window. The north and south windows are both filled with stained quarries. The floor paved with encaustic tile. The roof, waggon-shaped, of oak, divided into panels painted blue. Oak stalls, altar rails, and lining of walls, all richly carved. The old Jacobean screen has been restored. To the north of the chancel a vestry has been built, with an external door, an opening to the chancel and another through the angle of the nave to the pulpit, which, with the prayer-desk and the open benches of the church, are of carved oak. The south aisle, with its porch, has been rebuilt in the perpen• dicular style, and is considerably widened. Both nave and aisle have the old semicircular or waggon roofs of polished oak. The font is new, of semi-Norman style, enriched with the dog-tooth moulding, and a series of sculptures on the eight panels. These are the work of an amateur and are admirably executed. Throughout the church texts of scripture are painted in illumi• nated character, and the beatitudes stretch along the wall-plates of the nave, north and south. The fast Register commences about the year 1568, but the early entries are very much obliterated. BAP'l'lSlIS. 1588. Nov. 17. Richard, son of Midiael Cauley. 1590. Mar. 28.
