Description
The Church of All Saints is a parish church that dates back to the Anglo-Saxon period, with additions from the 13th and 14th centuries. It is constructed of sandstone rubble and features a plain tile roof. The exterior showcases herringbone work on the nave and includes two splayed lancet windows. The west tower is topped with a truncated conical broach spire, which has a 20th-century open-work superstructure.
Inside, the church has exposed roof timbers with cusped braces in the nave. Notable interior features include a 15th-century screen, a wall-stair leading to the rood-loft, and a double piscina with an ornamented head. There is also a 14th-century canopy adorned with ballflower decoration and figure-head corbels on the south wall, along with fragmentary wall paintings. A tablet commemorating Ralph and Margaret Greaves, dating from around 1638, is made of colourwashed sandstone and features a moulded pediment on attached pillars. Additionally, there is a funeral hatchment and an east window from around 1865.
