Description
The Church of All Saints is a church built between 1895 and 1896 by Medland Taylor, with completion in 1910 when the chancel, apse, and north aisle were added. It is constructed of Flemish bond red Ruabon bricks and features a red tile roof with Lakeland green slate on the tower. The building has a 4-bay nave and north aisle, a south porch, a short chancel with a polygonal apse, and a vestry on the south side, creating the impression of a crossing. The low crossing tower is topped with a broached spire. The nave windows are chamfered triple lancets, and the porch at the left end has a chamfered and rebated doorcase with stone springers. The apse sits on a brick plinth and includes a sill band and faint diapering. It features 2-light windows, with the east window raised and adorned with quatrefoil plate tracery. The north aisle has lines of 2 and 4-light lancets, and the west end includes a projecting baptistery. The tower has a brick corbel table and a louvred opening in the spire.
Inside, the walls are brick, glazed below sill level, with some sandstone dressings. There is a 4-bay arcade of rebated arches on plain piers with stone springers leading to the north aisle. The nave windows are set in recesses with arches of varying centring that form hoods. The roof is arch-braced collar type, supported by stone corbels. The aisle windows also have similar recesses, with hoods formed by pairs of segmental arches on a plain pier. The lean-to roof has purlins braced from a short king post. Rebated arches lead to the chancel, apse, and to the organ loft and vestry on the sides. The apse roof features a painting of the Angel appearing to The Shepherds by Herman Salamon.
