Description
The Church of All Saints is a parish church dating to 1771, consecrated in 1773. Its construction employed dressed coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and quoins, topped with a slate roof. The church features parapets with gabled and coped sections, with a band extending under the parapet to form a pediment at the east end. The south side sits on a shallow plinth. The architectural layout comprises a nave and an apsidal east end, with an embattled tower bearing four crocketed pinnacles across four stages, separated by bands.
A south-side doorway features a fielded panel door within a flush ashlar quoin surround. The tower’s south side also includes a doorway with a 6-panel door and chamfered rusticated surround, topped with a keystone. Second-stage features include semi-circular fixed lights with Gibbs style surrounds; on the south side, an ashlar plaque denotes "Built in 1771." Above this is a circular fixed light with a raised ashlar surround and four keystones; the west side features a small rectangular light. The bell chamber openings are arched with raised ashlar surrounds. The north wall has three round arch casements, also with Gibbs style surrounds. The apsidal east end displays an arched fixed light flanked by rectangular fixed lights, all with Gibbs style surrounds. A continuous sill band and cornice run along the exterior. The south wall mirrors the north in window design and also incorporates a doorway, a semi-circular window, and a slate headstone commemorating George Goodman, who died in 1695.
The interior’s basket arch to the apse is characterized by a moulded continuous hood mould extending to all walls except the west, with gilt decorated label stops. A moulded cornice runs along the top. The church contains 18th-century panelled fittings, including a reredos, pulpit, reading desk, and altar rails. Box pews, including a squire's and parson’s pews, are from the 19th century. A west gallery is supported by two columns and features decoratively carved panels. An octagonal ashlar font has an 18th-century inner bowl. Other furnishings include a single 18th-century depiction of Royal Arms and a benefactions board located in the tower. 19th-century memorials are present, crafted by J. Bacon (London), S. Pratt & Co. (Nottingham), and Hull of Loughborough.
