St Edmund's Church is a church in Egleton, Rutland. It is a Grade I listed building. [2]
The church is essentially Norman with good examples of Norman carving in the chancel arch and the south door. [3] Patterned columns support the doorway. [4]
The church says the south doorway dates from the 12th century and Nikolaus Pevsner describes its style as Saxo-Norman. [5] [4] A carved tympanum, [3] showing, what is thought to be, either a lion or a dragon facing each other from each side of a six-armed wheel, can be seen. [4]
The 12th-century font features rosettes and crosses. The south-facing part has a geometric shape with six leaves similar to the one on the tympanum. [4]
A rood screen dating from the 15th century can be seen at the western end of the nave. The medieval pews are decorated with poppyheads. Situated above the chancel arch is a coat of arms probably belonging to George III. [4]
In the 14th century the tower, south porch, clerestory, arcade and north aisle were all added. The chancel had to be rebuilt in the 15th century. [4] The north aisle has been demolished and the arcade in-filled.
