Summary

Sketches of English scenes. Dumbleton Church was built during Norman times. The original church would have consisted of just a nave and chancel but in the 13th century a tower was added at the western end. In the 14th century a large transept was added by Robert Daston as a burial chapel for himself and his family. More changes took place in the 15th century when the south aisle was built and the nave walls heightened to include a cleristory. Also in the 15th century the tower was heightened and battlement added. A substantial reconstruction of the chancel took place in 1862 together with a new roof and the present tile floor.
