Church Of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a Grade II* listed building located in Seagrave. It dates from the 13th to the 15th century and underwent restoration with the chancel being rebuilt in the 19th century. The church is constructed from granite rubble stone with stone dressings and features a Swithland slate roof. It has stone coped gables, some of which have cross finials. The structure includes a west tower, nave, aisles, chancel, and north and south porches.

The west tower is built in the Perpendicular style and consists of three stages with clasping buttresses. It has a west window, loopholes in the second stage, four two-light bell openings, a quatrefoiled lozenge frieze, remains of gargoyles, and battlements. Inside, there is a double chamfered nave arch supported by semi-circular responds. The north arcade from the 13th century features double chamfered arches on circular piers, while the early 14th century south arcade has double chamfered arches on octagonal piers. The Perpendicular clerestory has four windows on either side, with two two-light windows and two three-light windows towards the west and east, respectively. The 19th-century roof is adorned with curved braces to the collars.

In the north aisle, there are four windows with reticulated tracery, along with a north door and porch. The interior also includes a piscina and an aumbry. The chancel arch is double chamfered and supported by responds with fillets. The north and east windows feature stained glass from 1881, while other windows have tinted glass. The chancel has a 19th-century boarded roof, and a medieval altar stone was remounted in the mid-20th century. The south aisle contains three windows with reticulated tracery and an east window with plate tracery. A rood loft arch is present, along with a piscina and square niches. There are pieces of 18th-century panelling, likely from old box pews, against the wall. The south doorway has a many-moulded arch, and the south porch was added in 1889. A circular Norman font features blank arcading with colonettes supporting segmental arches, and it has a 19th-century base. The interior retains two old chests, the Royal arms on a panel over the chancel arch, and two early 19th-century musical instruments: an ophicleide and a serpent.
