Church Of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a parish church dating to the 15th century. The chancel was rebuilt in 1883 by F. Bacon in a 13th-century style, and a north vestry and south organ chamber were added at this time. The remainder of the church was restored in 1865 and 1883, and a 19th-century south porch was constructed. The church is built of granite rubble with limestone dressings, and has lead roofs on the nave and aisles, while the chancel, vestry, and organ chamber have Swithland slate roofs.

The west tower is of three stages with diagonal buttresses, a moulded plinth, a restored battlemented parapet, and carved gargoyles at the corners. The bell-chamber has arched openings with two traceried lights. The middle stage contains small rectangular windows, and the west front features a two-light window with ogee tracery and a moulded arched door. The nave and aisles have parapets with moulded battlements, with rainwater heads dated 1883. The clerestory has five bays of cusped three-light windows with four-centred arched heads. Similar windows are found in the aisles, all with restored carved head stops to the hoodmoulds. A 15th-century south door has a four-centred arch, traceried spandrels, a moulded rectangular surround, and carved head stops. The 19th-century gabled south porch has a moulded arch and three-light traceried side windows. A small, blocked north door has a moulded arch.

The chancel has cusped eaves corbelling on the south side, and two bays of two-light south windows with cusped plate tracery, shafts, and dogtooth mouldings. The large four-light east window has a vent and gablet above and a gabled buttress below. The organ chamber, situated in the angle between the chancel and south aisle, has a plate-traceried two-light window to the south and a high set of triple lancets in the east wall. A lean-to north vestry has lancet windows.

The interior features a double-chamfered arch to the tower; six-bay nave arcades with chamfered arches and shafted piers, the slender shafts facing the nave and aisles carried up on the nave side as wall shafts; and 19th-century roofs to the nave and aisles. An arched piscina and double sedilia are located in the south aisle. There are 19th-century arches to the vestry and organ chamber, and a large 19th-century chancel arch with a roll-moulding on shafts. The chancel has a cusped arch and doorway to the north vestry, both with carved ornament, and a similar uncusped arch to the organ chamber. A cusped north piscina is present, alongside a south-east window with an internal tracery screen and window seat sedilia. The church contains a 15th-century octagonal stone font with traceried panels, a 19th-century wrought-iron screen on stone dwarf walls, and a 19th-century wooden pulpit on a base with study marble shafts and stiff-leaf capitals. A carved and gilt wooden reredos from the late 19th and early 20th centuries is also present, along with late 19th-century stained glass, with the east window designed by Heaton, Butler and Bayne in 1883. There are some 18th and 19th century wall tablets.
