ST. PETER OF MANCROFT, the finest church in the city, was rebuilt of white stone in 1455. It has a noble tower, 98 ft. high, with a splendid peal of twelve bells, exchanged for the old peal of ten in 1775, at a cost of £800. The font stands under a canopy supported by pillars, forming a baptistry on a raised platform, which there is room enough to walk round. The church was greatly beautified about twenty years ago, by the putting in stained glass windows, with figures of the apostles. Among the church plate is a beautiful large cup cover, on which is represented Abigail bringing presents to David, presented by Sir Peter Gleane, 1633. In the vestry is a portrait of Sir Thomas Browne, who was buried here, and whose coffin was accidentally broken open in 1840, when the skeleton was found in a good state of preservation. Several old books are also preserved in the vestry, including a manuscript bible of 1340, and a beautifully illuminated copy of St. Paul’s Epistles, much more ancient. In the church are many monuments and inscriptions. The parishioners are patrons, and the Rev. C. Turner is incumbent. ST. PETER PER MOUNTERGATE—so named from a gate formerly adjacent—was erected in 1486. In the chancel are twenty-four stalls, which belonged to a college of secular priests that stood in the churchyard. South of the altar are the tomb and effigies of R. Berney, Esq., and his wife; and in the nave is interred Thomas Codd, mayor during Kett’s rebellion. ST. PETER OF SOUTHGATE is an ancient building, with a square tower. Rev. J. Deacon, rector. ST. SAVIOUR, a small fabric, dedicated to the Transfiguration, has a square embattled tower, and contains several neat mural monuments. In Bishop Oxford’s time it was appropriated to the almoner of the cathedral convent. Rev. W. H. Cooke, incumbent. ST. SIMON AND JUDE contains some ancient brasses, and several monuments and effigies of the Pettus’ family, upon one of which is a recumbent figure, in complete armour, of Sir J. Pettus, the first of the family who was knighted. The church is of great antiquity, and was held by the bishops before the removal of the see to Norwich. Rev. C. Holloway, rector. ST. STEPHEN is a commodious gothic structure, with two side chapels, and a square tower at the west end. The nave is divided from the aisles by fluted columns with pointed arches, and the east window is richly beautified with stained glass. There are several old brasses and many mural tablets. In the vestry is a manuscript description of the church, written by Benjamin Mackerell, author of a history of Lynn; also a curious old alabaster carving. The church has lately undergone repairing and restoration. Rev. E. Evans, vicar.
