English: The church of St John the Baptist in Bressingham - C13 baptismal font. The tower of St John's church > 1771769 dates from the 15th century and is 20 metres high. The chancel > 1771791 was built during the 13th century and was perhaps part of an earlier church or chapel. Nave, aisles, clerestory (supported by 14th century pillars) and porch are 16th century. The church houses a number of medieval survivals such as the fragments of glass > 1771795 that can be seen set into the east window. The baptismal font dates from the 13th century, its cover is believed to be 17th century (Jacobean) as is the pulpit > 1771798. The church's greatest treasure are the pews, most of which dating from the 16th century, with elaborately carved ends > 1771820. All the figures and animals on the armrests have been mutilated during the Reformation. The box pews in the aisles > 1771808 date from the 18th century.
