INTERNAL VIEWS

The view of the nave as you enter the south door. A view towards the high altar from the nave. The chancel with the modern nave altar table in the foreground. A close-up of the high altar showing the turn of the 20th century carved stone reredos. St Bartholomews has a very early font, at least dating from the Norman church, possibly even the original Saxon church. The 1906 Rothwell organ in the south transept seen from the central nave. The north chapel is very light and airy, setting off the modern altar painting. The children's chapel in the north east. The impressive west window with 'Tree of Life' stained glass. This page also links to the windows page from which some of the stained glass may be viewed in more detail. A view of the west end showing the early 19th century galleries.
