windows of one, 2 and 3-lights, some with transoms and some with trefoiled heads, some lights with sash windows, some
lights with iron casements. East front with projecting oratory and adjacent stair-turret with conical roof; foiled
oculus to gable with buttress below, some stained glass. The principal door opening to north, moulted pointed-arch
