The fine pulpit is 17th century Jacobean, beneath the misleadingly dated 1718 sounding board which is later. As may be seen in the next slide, the pulpit was originally 1 metre (3 feet) to the right on the Norman pillar of the Chancel arch. To fit the pulpit in this earlier position the Norman pillar was badly hacked about. The rood screen doorway, seen on the upper left, was discovered during the 1896 restoration. It was covered by the Thomas Peacock memorial which was moved to the North aisle at this time. | Pulpit
