Church of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a building dating back to the 13th century, originally a church that was extended and altered in the 15th and 16th centuries. The chancel was rebuilt in 1726, and a South porch was added in the 19th century.

A 15th-century West tower is constructed of pebbles with Barnack stone dressings. It features an embattled parapet, diagonal buttressing, a splayed plinth, and a brick newel staircase turret at the South West angle. Gargoyles shaped like beasts are positioned at the centre of each side of the main cornice. The tower includes a 15th-century doorway, a West window, and two-light bell chamber openings, all with moulded labels and mask and beast stops. Small quatrefoil openings are present on each wall of the second stage.

The parapetted nave is constructed of pebbles with Barnack stone dressings and gault brick repairs. A clerestory on each side has three windows, each of three cinquefoil lights; similar, larger windows are in the South aisle. The South porch is dated 1851 and is constructed of pebbles with stone dressings. The chancel, dated 1726, is of red brick with Barnack dressings, and has a plain tiled roof with an end parapet and eaves cornice. Two windows, each of two cinquefoil lights, are located on the South wall.

Inside, a 15th-century tower arch is two-centred, and consists of two chamfered orders. The splayed responds have attached shafts with half-octagonal capitals, supporting a wave-moulded arch. The North arcade is from the 13th century and comprises three bays; it features two-centred arches of two hollow-chamfered orders on cylindrical columns with moulded bases and octagonal capitals. The South arcade, also from the 13th century and of three bays, has plain chamfered two-centred arches on octagonal columns and capitals, with octagonal bases and plinths. The nave and South aisle have a 16th-century roof, with a chamfered and stopped wall plate, moulded principal rafters, and longitudinal timbers. The jackposts to the principals are original. In the nave, the cambered tie beams are supported by original jackposts, and the intermediate principals have carved figures to their soffits. The 13th-century chancel arch is similar to the North arcade. The 1726 chancel was remodelled internally in the 19th century, but retains a mid-18th-century communion rail. An early 17th-century hexagonal pulpit has arcaded panelling in two tiers, although the steps, stem and plinth are modern. The lectern also incorporates early 17th-century panels.
