Nails used to hold up WW2 blackout curtains in the church
​
On the south wall of the church nave above each window
on either side is a large nail. These are a remnant of the
WW2 requirement to black out any light after dark, so that
the position of the village could not be spotted by enemy
aircraft. Black curtains or blinds would have been used.

If you look carefully in the centre of the adjacent picture
you will see one of the nails
