The Church of The Holy TrinityAdvertisements
THE CHURCH OF THE HOLY TRINITY is a cruciform structure, with a lofty spire. This with the porch is in the Decorated style, the rest of the Church being Perpendicular. The Register dates from 1505, and the Church is referred to in Caius' History as having been burnt down in the great fire which took place in the year 1174. Many improvements were made in the interior of the Church ; and when one of the galleries was removed, a stone figure was found, representing a bishop (fully vested), with portions of a richly sculptured and painted canopy. It is now in the Archaeological Museum. It seems probable that it represents one of the Abbots of the Monastery of West Dereham in Norfolk, to whom the Church formerly belonged. The Rev. Charles Simeon was Vicar from 1782 to 1836. |
