Description

The Church of All Saints is a church dating back to the 13th century, with additions and alterations in the 15th and 18th centuries. It was restored between 1906 and 1911 by Temple Moore. The building is constructed of limestone and sandstone rubble, with some ashlar and 18th-century brick. The roofs are covered in pantiles and lead.

The church comprises a 13th-century nave and aisles, a 15th-century upper section of the tower and clerestory, and an 18th-century south porch. The west front features a three-stage tower. The lower stage is of rubble construction, while the upper stages are of ashlar. Diagonal stepped buttresses are present. A pointed doorway features two moulded orders and angel head label stops. Above it is a three-light transomed Perpendicular window with beast head label stops. A string course runs across the tower, above which is a niche containing a seated, kingly figure beneath a nodding canopy. Further string courses are topped by two-light transomed, pointed Perpendicular belfry openings on each face. Pinnacles adorn the diagonal buttresses and gargoyles are placed beneath the openwork battlements, which have eight pinnacles. The west end of the aisles has a lancet window on the north side and a two-light, square-headed Perpendicular window on the south side.

The south porch has a round-arched doorway with a keystone and imposts. The south aisle features a 2-light Perpendicular window in the first bay and Perpendicular windows with three stepped lights in the third and fourth bays. A 18th-century brick parapet tops the aisle. The clerestory has two-light, square-headed Perpendicular windows. The north aisle is of two builds, with a blocked pointed door flanked by paired round-headed windows, the heads cut from single large blocks, that to the right being a reused, incised block, possibly of 14th-century origin.

The chancel has a pointed door and a blocked square-headed window to the south, alongside a pair of two-light, four-centred windows. To the north are two square-headed windows, one with two trefoiled lights and the other with three trefoiled lights. The east end has a three-light Perpendicular window and a lancet to the north chapel.

Inside, pointed arcades rest on slender round piers. The nave has a Perpendicular roof with bosses. A west gallery dates from 1767, and a 17th-century pulpit features a sounding board. A Perpendicular screen divides the north chapel. Painted texts are on the east wall.
