Description

The Church of All Saints is a parish church largely dating to the 13th and 14th centuries, with significant restoration work carried out in the 19th century. It is constructed from coursed ironstone rubble, with Welsh slate roofs. The church comprises a west tower, a nave, and a chancel.

The west tower has three stages, featuring plate tracery paired lights in the west wall and to the bell chamber. It is topped by a squat spire with lucarnes set back behind an embattled parapet. The western end of the nave is built from poorly coursed rubble, with a single lancet window. A Victorian gabled porch has been added with a round arched doorway. The inner door is a curious feature, possibly from the 16th or 17th century: a shouldered opening is recessed behind an outer arch, also shouldered, but with an elaborated double curved head, and a carved face above. The eastern bays of the nave were rebuilt in the 19th century using squared rubble and incorporating two-light square headed windows with drop ended hoodmoulds. A new eastern buttress and coped gable are also Victorian.

The chancel is of poorly coursed rubble with a plinth and angle quoins. It includes a possible blocked south window and a Victorian east window with three lights of reticulated tracery. A Victorian north vestry has been added.

Inside, very little medieval detail remains. The west tower arch is roll moulded. The nave has a Victorian scissor braced roof. The chancel arch is double chamfered on chamfered responds. A reredos dating to 1928 is present in the chancel, together with some 20th century stained glass in the east window. The font is 15th century, octagonal with four shafts, each face containing a traceried panel. A 19th century charity board is located in the nave.
