The Altar
Arranged by members of Hartley and District
Flower Club
Shuttered window in the south wall of the Chancel
A handbell may have been rung out of this window at the time
of the elevation of the host before bells had been installed
in the turret at the west end. Such windows also made it possible
for people with conditions such as leprosy to see the altar and
to receive the sacrament without entering the church.
Arranged by Anne Senneck Sponsor: Gill Pearson
Two Bells
Two bells hang in the turret above, dating from the 1360 & 1552.
In 2002 they were refurbished at the Whitechapel Bell Foundry
and then re-hung by the Kent County Association of Change Ringers.

The East Window and the Reredos
The east window was filled in 1898 with stained glass presented
by the P&O Company in memory of Adam Tait of Hartley Court.
It was restored and re-ordered in 1987. The Revd W W Allen carved
the oak reredos [1882] which is below the window.
