A HISTORY OF BEDFORDSHIRE rest of the south side being occupied by an arcade of two bays opening to the south chapel and contem- porary with it. This chapel has one east window and two on the south, each of three cinquefoiled lights under flat-pointed heads, and between the two south windows is a doorway in modern stonework. East of this doorway, on the inner face of the wall, is a recess 12 in. deep, with a four-centred head, the sill being about 6 ft. from the floor, and below the south- east window is a piscina. The chancel arch is of the full width of the chancel, with moulded capitals of slight projection, and an arch of two moulded orders, the jambs having the curious local detail of the rounded member running up to the capitals and stopping abruptly under the abacus.

In the west wall, near the entrance to the church, are two recesses, both plastered and of uncertain origin, though one may have held the holy water stone. At the south-east is a vice in a turret of irregular plan leading to the parvise above, and in the east wall is a fifteenth-century lozenge-shaped panel of stone, with indents of a brass, clearly that of a priest, the central object having been a chalice and host. The parvise is lighted by square-headed wi
