Also around this time the north porch was built and doorways and windows in the nave were replaced.

A major restoration was carried out in 1852 under the direction of the then rector, The high churchman Rev George Drury, working with the architect Richard Phipson.

Until then the church had consisted of a nave, a chancel, a west tower and a north porch.

The restoration included virtually rebuilding the chancel and adding the transepts and organ chambers.

It is thought that some of the stained glass in the east window was designed by Rev Drury.
