There are many brasses, including to members of the Boleyn family. The church retains some of its medieval stained glass in the east window and in the south transept south window. The font has a very tall Perpendicular canopy.〔(Norfolk Churches ) Retrieved 22 June 2014〕 St Peter and St Paul's church and was never collegiate, so it is peculiar that it has twenty six, 15th century misericords.
