Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St Mary's church - tomb chest with columns. Just northwest of the church tower. See also > 848666. St Mary's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848648 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848676 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848698 was extensively restored during Victorian times: roof and benches date from this time, with C16 poppyheads affixed to the late Victorian benches. There is a huge Commandment Board above the blocked north doorway, the text executed in 'black letter' script, the paintings depicting the four Evangelists and their symbols, and Aaron and Moses > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848700. The C18 carved communion rails > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848691 were presumably made by a local carpenter. Older survivals are the C13 font and angle piscina in the south aisle; the largely original C15 rood screen consists of six panels, one of which depicts the Holy Trinity, the other the Virgin Mary > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848680 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848682 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848686. Fragments of medieval glass are set into the chancel windows and there are several C17 monuments on the chancel wall > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/572734. On the sanctuary floor there is a damaged brass to Sir Ralph Shelton (d. 1424) and his wife Alice > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848692. The church organ > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/848706 was made in 1867 by William Denman of York, who made two organs for Norfolk churches: the other one was destroyed during WW2. The church is open every day. For more information see: http://www.norfolkchurches.co.uk/greatsnoring/greatsnoring.htm
