Church of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a parish church dating from around 1750, with additions from the 19th century. It is constructed of limestone and blue lias, with banded coursed rubble, ashlar dressings, and pecked ashlar walling on the south side, all covered by lead roofs. The church consists of a nave, a western tower, and an apsidal chancel.

The two-stage tower is distinguished by a chamfered plinth, a concave string course surmounted by an embattled parapet, and four stubby obelisk pinnacles. The ground floor features a single semi-circular headed window with a plain ashlar surround. Above this is a blank keyed oculus, with a short section of chamfered string course beneath. The upper stage has wooden latticed semi-circular headed belfry lights on all four sides. A small 19th-century boiler house is located to the north of the tower.

The north wall of the nave has a plinth, a plain eaves course, and a raised stone coped gable leading to a lead roof. It contains a single two-light window with semi-circular heads, set within a semi-circular headed arch with a raised keystone and chamfered reveals and mullions, incorporating simple impost blocks. The short ashlar apse has a plinth and moulded eaves course, and a central Venetian window. The south wall, faced in ashlar, mirrors the north wall with two matching two-light windows. A west door, located south of the tower, is accessed via a 19th-century planked door with a traceried fanlight, set within a cavetto moulded surround, plinth blocks, moulded impost blocks, and a raised triple keystone.

The interior includes a panelled vestibule leading to the nave, which has crude dado panelling and a cyma moulded plaster cornice. A small, panelled double door with L hinges provides access to the tower; this door, along with the panelling reused in the vestibule, and dado panelling to the apse and pew ends, are raised and fielded. A wide round headed arch leads to the chancel, featuring a single plain inner order. Surviving original fittings include the pulpit and altar rails with robust turned balusters. All other altar furniture, the lectern and font, date from 1879. The church contains a fine 19th-century cast iron circular candleabrum with fleur de lys brattishing, and four three-branch pew candlesticks with twisted shafts and shamrocks. A monument to William Dunkin, who died in 1838, is situated in the chancel; it takes the form of a Greek altar with an anthemion in the pediment and a flaming urn with an acanthus base above. The chancel features good stained glass windows, and the early nave windows retain their delicate geometric lead cames.
