Summary[edit]

Description
English: St Clement's church - George III royal arms. St Clement's used to be a cruciform church but its transepts and aisles no longer exist, and its central (basically Norman) tower was shortened and capped with a wood and lead bell-cupola in the 17th century > 865925. For some time the passage under the tower > 865940 - the former crossing - was blocked, the nave serving as a church whilst the chancel was used as a school room. The decalogue boards are still in place above the tower arch. There is an early C15 wall painting depicting St Christopher > 865943 on the north wall; it is barely one metre wide and one of the smallest examples of the subject in England. The font > 865948 is Norman. In the chancel there is a set of deeply splayed lancet windows > 865933. Since the chancel can hardly been seen from the nave, because of earlier alterations, there now is an altar at the east end of the nave > 865926. The Royal Arms above the south doorway are to King George III (seen here). The church is open every day. For more information see: http://www.norfolkchurches.co.uk/burnhamovery/burnhamovery.htm
