Inspired by your post I went with Friend today. Information in the little booklet purchased says "The name of it is Saxon, and means the stone (or stone building) of Ealac. No stone can now be identified with certainty but the smaller one against the wall in the vestry may well be 10th century. No other like it is known, and there is just a possibility that it is the stone which gave the village its name. Its remarkable non-Christian pattern should be studied"

Here are a few random pics taken in the church today. The light in the Chancel is natural and comes from the side windows.
