1 Seven-sided oak drum on limestone base and steps. Five external sides have frieze of embattlement decoration and foliate cornice. Below are panels with blind gothic tracery alternating in design; one panel with a rounded arch with floral spandrels, beneath which is an ogee arch containing a pair of cusped, gothic, cinquefoil arches united with a central quatrefoil and each space between the underside of the rounded arch and the top of the ogee containing two elongated bifoils; the other panel has an ogee with spandrels, each containing a quatrefoil roundel with a central flower head. In each panel the two lower cusps within the gothic arches terminate in a carved flower head. The sixth side is against the wall and provides support for a curved seat. On the inside, all six sides are plain-boarded with the seventh side open for access. The moulded plinth, stem and steps of the pulpit are of limestone. The stone stem is made up of three segments, which are defined by filleting with incised convex moulding. The head of the stem has a protruding ledge holding the wooden upper aspect. The ledge consists of a frieze formed of a rolled moulding and embattlement decoration. The stem backs onto a substantial base including four integral steps.

370  ROOF  A   Dr Phs CHANCEL

1 Scissor-truss style roof, ornamented with blue and white painted roll-moulded poles, with yellow and red floral motifs at intervals, extending along the lower surfaces of the arch braces. At the altar end is what resembles a hammer beam truss which forms an arch over the E window which is lined with a blue and white painted roll moulded pole, and to which are fixed, with wooden pegs, three angels. (This is not a true hammer beam in that it does not act as a support) The angels are positioned to the N, centre and S of the E window. The angels’ bodies which appear older (possibly medieval) than the completion date of 1910, are unpainted but the splayed wings, which may have been positioned in 1910, are painted in red and white (ref a). To the N of the E window the angel holds an heraldic shield painted with the blue saltire cross of Scotland. The central angel holds an heraldic shield painted with St  George’s cross. To the S side of the window the angel holds an heraldic shield painted with the red saltire cross of Northern Ireland. The wall plates extend down the N and S walls to form a frieze, bordered with black and white painted roll- moulded poles and with stencilled black gothic script, with important capitals in gold against a blue background, interspersed with named heraldic shields. The text on the N wall of the chancel, reading from W to E, is taken from the the King James Bible, Revelation 7:9:

Lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands.

The text on the S wall of the chancel, reading from E to W is taken from two readings in the King James Bible. Reading one: Revelation 7:10:

And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

The second part of the text comes from Revelation 7:12:

Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever.

Heraldic Shields, N wall, W to E:

a) 1&4 Beresford: Crusilly fitchy three fleurs-de-lys within a bordure engrailed Sable.

Heraldic Shields, S. wall E. to W:

j) Mowbray: Gules a lion rampant Argent. No text (ref b)

k) de Houby: Azure a bend between six mullets Argent (the bend and mullets are wrongly painted yellow). Text above: Hoby (ref b)

l) Belers quartering Houby:- 1&3 Belers: Per pale Gules and Sable a lion rampant Sable. 2&4 Houby: Azure a bend between six mullets Argent (correctly shown painted white). Text above: Hoby (ref b)

m) Seagrave: Sable a lion rampant Argent. Text above: Belers ancient. Note: The text above is probably an error as no such Belers shield has been identified. Nicholas Segrave had a black shield with three silver wheat sheaves on it. (H III Roll). Sir John de Segrave 1296-1325 and his brother, Baron Nicholas bore the crowned lion. Nicole de Segrave (E I Roll) bore the uncrowned lion. Presumably this refers to the latter (ref b)

n) Text above: Belers modern. Note: An effigy that appears to be that of Sir Roger Belers, together with that of his wife, is in the church of St Peter at Kirby Bellers. He carries a shield bearing, Per pale Sable and Gules a lion rampant Argent (ref b) as shown on this shield

o) Villers impaling Belers:- Villers: Sable a fess between three cinquefoils Argent. Belers: Per pale Gules and Sable a lion rampant Argent. Text above: Villers (ref b)

p) Villiers: Sable a fess between three cinquefoils Argent. Text above: Villers ancient. Note: see Villers current coat of Arms in footnote below (ref b)

q)Villiers: Argent on cross Gules five escallops Or. Text above: Villers modern. Note: see Villers current coat of Arms in footnote below (ref b)

r) Chaworth: Azure two chevronels Or. Text above: Some letters are missing….MAWORT.. or ….HAWORT.. however some research indicates that this should be Chaworth (of Alfreton co Derby) Note: Armitage claims it is Alfreton. (ref d) The shield should have gold (Or) chevronels but they are clearly silver (white/Argent) chevronels. Either the original gold has oxidised or the shield was over painted incorrectly – possibly medieval (ref b)

370 ROOF D Dr Phs N AISLE

1 Timber-trussed roof formed of 4 bays, supported by 5 simple trusses, in turn supported by corbel stones on the N and S walls. Each bay is supported by principal rafters with smaller principal rafters between. These are composite-moulded with stopped chamfers and have differing bosses placed centrally where rafters cross within each bay. Bosses are floral or foliate; some are faces with grotesque expressions and two green men with foliage surrounding their faces. Within the angles between the wall posts, tie beams and rafters there is pierced tracery composed of trefoil cusped arches. The roof fall is from S to N. Condition of trusses is reasonable but the 2^nd and 4^th from the W end have discolouration and fungus growth, as have a number of rafters supporting the roof above, causing significant decay.

370 ROOF F  Ph NAVE

1 The roof is in 4½ bays supported by 4 simple beams, which support ridge beams and purlins – one purlin to each slope. These in turn support exposed timber rafters above which are sarking boards. The beams are uneven in size which indicates that it is of some age. It appears that all parts at some time in the past have been damaged by beetle attack. This has been defrassed and the damaged material removed at some stage. (ref a)
