Photograph by Roger Stalley. Detail of a shaft between the two rere - arches. The whitewash left and right is on the splay of the lancets - which run in a continuous sequence. The jamb is moulded with a large central hollow (to house a now missing endélit shaft) flanked by roll - and - fillets and further hollows. The outer hollows terminate in a chamfer where they flank the capital. This capital, with stalks in the bell and a band of barleytwist below the stiff - leaf, supports arch mouldings formed of roll - and - fillets and hollows.
