View of the Choir stalls looking west from the Chancel entrance door. There are sixteen stalls for the members of Tong College rather than a choir. Many bear distinctive and unusual carvings.

The monument high on the north wall commemorates Charles Buckeridge, Archdeacon of Coventry and minister of Tong for sixteen years, died 1827 aged 72.
