Pointed arched entrance, chamfered with broach stops, under a hoodmould with square stops. Similar doorway into church, containing a planked door with iron strapwork. The porch has a 2-bay arch-braced roof, probably early C16, and side benches. There are no openings L of the porch. To the R is a small medieval low-level window with monolithic trefoiled head. Taller C19 trefoil-headed lights flanking, one to its L and 2 lighting the chancel. The medieval fabric continues almost to arch spring level of the windows.
