In 1892-93 the north Transept—the Blacksmith’s Forge—was removed, and a shallow Transept rebuilt, giving abutment to the great arches of the Crossing, and providing a Morning chapel, and uncovering much old work. This Transept was opened on June 5, 1893.
A north Porch was built, giving access to the Church from Cloth Fair, and providing a room for the Mission Worker.
A west Porch was built with a room over. The west Front was newly faced with flint and stone, and the approach widened.
A new Pulpit was erected, the gift of the late Sextoness.

The north and south Triforia were opened out. The Peal of Bells was re-hung, and the Bell Tower repaired.
In 1895 the Crypt was restored and reopened as a Mortuary Chapel.
