Church Of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a Grade I listed building located in Roos, with parts dating back to the 13th century for the chancel, and the 14th century for the nave and west tower, which was raised in the 15th century. An early 19th-century porch has been added. The church is constructed of cobbles with stone dressings, and features a brick porch and a graduated slate roof.

The west tower is three stages high and includes a three-bay aisled nave with a south porch and a two-bay chancel. Architectural details of the west tower include a moulded plinth, chamfered strings, a small lancet window in the second stage, and two-light pointed belfry openings with cusped Y-tracery, topped with a crenellated parapet. The west window is a three-light pointed design with Perpendicular tracery under a hood-mould.

The nave has two-light square-headed windows with Perpendicular tracery on the west and centre, and a similar three-light window on the east. The south door is pointed with continuous mouldings. The clerestory features three three-light pointed windows with Perpendicular tracery, along with a hollow-chamfered cornice and raised coped gables.

In the chancel, there is a lancet window to the west and a pointed priests' door with moulded capitals and a hood-mould at the centre. The east end of the chancel has been rebuilt, featuring a three-light pointed east window with Perpendicular tracery under a blank quatrefoil, set within a raised coped gable topped with a cross finial.

Inside, the church has a double chamfered pointed tower arch with moulded capitals and a raised moulded base. The north respond includes a medieval yellow-glazed floor tile. The 14th-century north arcade consists of three pointed double-chamfered arches, with the west arch being considerably wider than the others, supported by moulded capitals and octagonal piers with moulded bases. The south arcade, dating from the 15th century, has similar features with chamfered bases. A squint window is located in the chancel's south wall, and the pointed double-chamfered chancel arch is supported by chamfered responds; the north respond incorporates a re-used stone carved with interlocking rings above a chequered pattern.

The 14th-century font is notable for its circular pier surrounded by the bases for eight colonnettes, which are now missing. It features an octagonal tub adorned with shields and quatrefoils. Behind the font is a broken 13th-century grave cover, carved with a stepped base and incorporating a wheel motif, though the head of the cross is missing.
