The tower contains three light Perpendicular windows in the north and south sides and two two-light windows in the other sides.
During the restoration work in the period 1965-1983, two three light windows on the east side of the south transept were embellished by some of the stained glass obtained from the nave of St. Ann’s church, Nottingham, when it was demolished.

An inscription is contained in the southernmost window:

There is no information concerning the actual age of these windows but the original church was built in the late 19th century.
The topmost light in the west window bears the letter ‘M’ crowned. This mirrors the symbol to be found on the cover of the font and was erected as a thanksgiving for the recovery of Mrs Clifton in about 1850.
