Description

The Church of All Saints is a parish church that dates back to the 13th century and was rebuilt by George Edmund Street in 1866, incorporating fragments from the 12th, 13th, and 14th centuries. It features coursed and random rubble with ashlar dressings beneath a tiled roof, while the spire is shingled. The church includes a west tower, a nave with a south porch, and a chancel with a north vestry.

The west tower, which is from the 13th century, has three stages, a corbelled cornice, and a timber broach spire. The second stage features lancet windows with labels, while the first stage has square-headed windows on each wall. The west wall of the ground stage has a trefoiled window with a label. The nave was rebuilt in 1866 and has a south wall with four windows: from west to east, there are alternating 12th-century semi-circular headed windows with tufa dressings and a 14th-century window with two trefoiled lights and a label. The south porch, which is 14th-century, has been much restored and features timber framing. The outer entrance has an arch-braced tie-beam, and the sides contain five cinquefoiled lights. The reset south door from the late 13th century has a two-centred arch, a moulded label, and moulded jambs.

On the north wall of the nave, there are two 12th-century windows at the center, a 14th-century trefoiled lancet to the west, and two pointed lights to the east, both with labels. The chancel was also rebuilt in 1866, and its south wall has a window with two trefoiled lights under a two-centred head, while the east window has three trefoiled lights with a label that features head stops.

Inside, the tower arch has a two-centred shape and is composed of two chamfered orders, with the outer order continuing down the jambs and the inner order featuring moulded capitals. The chancel arch has a two-centred head of two moulded orders, with the inner order also having moulded capitals and engaged respond shafts. In the south wall of the chancel, there is a two-seat sedilia and a piscina. The font has a plain round bowl that tapers towards the base, likely from the 13th century. A few 14th-century floor tiles have been reset around the base of the 19th-century pulpit, which is decorated with four carved figures of saints.
