Description

The Church of All Saints is a parish church located on Main Street in Thorganby. It dates back to the 13th century but was mostly rebuilt around 1900. The church is constructed from coursed ironstone rubble with limestone ashlar dressings and some red brick, topped with slate roofs featuring stone coped gables.

The building includes a west bellcote, a nave with a north aisle, and a rectangular chancel that has a boiler house and a north vestry. A high plinth runs over two-stage angle buttresses on the south side and a two-stage buttress that separates the main nave from the aisle. The west window consists of three cusped lights beneath a shallow segmental head with a hoodmould. The small bellcote features an arched opening, a gable, and a finial. The north aisle's west window is a single cusped light, while the north aisle itself has three pairs of broad pointed lights. The west door of the north vestry has a four-centred head and a plank door, with a small rectangular window to the east.

The boiler house is attached to the vestry but set back slightly, featuring single openings on the north and east sides, partially underground. The north side has a plank door, and the east side is blocked. The east end of the chancel has paired pointed lights with a hoodmould and a coped gable with a finial above. The south side of the chancel features brick eaves and two pointed lights, along with a three-light late 13th-century window that has interesting tracery. There is also a two-light window from around 1900 with Y tracery, and a 13th-century doorway beyond it with a pointed chamfered arch and chamfered jambs.

Inside, the early 13th-century north arcade consists of three bays with double chamfered pointed arches, round piers, and semi-circular responds with plain capitals. The chancel arch from the 13th century features a double chamfered pointed arch supported on corbels with polygonal abaci. The timber roof over the nave and the ceiling over the chancel are both from around 1900. The mid-18th-century altar rail is painted blue, and the 20th-century pews reuse eight 16th-century bench ends with square heads and bold tracery. The church also contains a 13th-century octagonal stone font on a rectangular plinth with nicked corners, a mid-18th-century hatchment over the south door, and a 20th-century pulpit and lectern.
