Fonts

View All

Fonts are often placed at or near the entrance of the nave because the rite of baptism is the first initiation into the Church and reminds believers of their journey. The variety of fonts in Norfolk is huge. They may be round, heptagonal, square... They may feature religious figures, sacraments, beasts, patterns... Think how many baptisms a Norfolk font has seen over its 1000 year history!

Pulpits

View All

From the Latin 'pulpitum', the 'pulpit' is the platform from where a preacher addresses the congregation. Whilst some pulpits can be austere, some are very ornate. In this gallery we've picked a selection of pulpits to highlight the range there is to see in Norfolk.

Stonework

The quality of stonework in Norfolk churches is a testament to the craftsmanship of stonemasons in centuries gone by. Marvel at the detail and creativity.

Rood Screens

View All

Typically a feature from the 14th-16th centuries, rood screens separate the nave from the chancel. Norfolk is home to some stunning examples.

Angel Roofs

High up in the rafters of some of our churches are angels looking down. Indeed, Norfolk churches have a beautiful and varied collection of roof angels waiting for you to discover them.

Stained Glass Windows

Both traditional and contemporary, this gallery highlights a range of stunning stained glass windows found in some of our churches across Norfolk.

Pew Ends

View All

We can often dismiss the pew as nothing more than just something to sit on in church. If, however, you take a closer look at some of the pews in Norfolk churches, you'll discover intricate detail and, at times, a sense of humour!

Organs

The playing of an organ is an uplifting and inspiring sound that fills the church in which it sits. Here is a gallery of just some of the more ornate organs in our Norfolk churches.
