The chancel dates to the 13th century; the sedile has a ogee-headed arch. The stone reredos, the design of Edward Browning, incorporates a marble relief by Mario Raggi; it was placed in the chancel in 1881 in memory of former rector, William Belgrave. [6] The stained glass in the east window is by Alfred Gérente (1856).
The chancel has some lamps which came from the Street called Straight in Damascus, [3] and it has a carved Roman stone. [5] Lt. Col. J. A. Codrington presented these Middle Eastern items to the church in 1923. Two mosaic pieces from the Church of St John the Baptist, Constantinople and a piece of Verde Antique from St Sophia's Church in Nicaea (İznik), are just some of the items he donated.
