Indications of the church’s medieval origin are the sedilia in the south wall of the chancel and the nearby piscina niche. There is a mass dial, or scratch dial, cut into the buttress near the south door of the chancel. Six clerestory  windows date from the reign of Henry VIII and there are some fragments of medieval glass. Of special interest are the monuments and memorial tablets for the Sacheverells, Lords of Barton in the 16th and 17th centuries, particularly the alabaster tomb of Sir William, who died in 1616, and his wife Tabitha
