Summary edit
| Description |
English: The church of St Mary in Diss - view through the tower arch. St Mary's Church > 1768170 is situated above Mere Street and the Market Place. The building has a tower with open arches underneath > 1768868 - this ensured that processions around the church, as was customary in medieval times, could pass through and remain within the church precincts. Built from local flint and limestone from Normandy, St Mary's church was started in 1290, with two side chapels added between 1430 and 1440. The west window in the south chapel contains medieval stained glass > 1768959 but all other windows are reconstructions > 1768945 of earlier ones and date from between 1866 and 1882. The east window > 1768909 is by Francis W Oliphant and was installed around 1857 when the chancel was extended and the small square window was replaced by the present one. The baptismal font > 1768971 was made in 1857. |
