Description

The Church of All Saints is a parish church built around 1880, incorporating materials from the late 13th century. It was designed by Sir Arthur William Blomfield. The church features reused coursed limestone and has plain tiled roofs with parapets. Its layout includes a nave with a north aisle, a chancel, and a north organ chamber with a vestry.

On the south wall of the nave, there are three windows, each with two trefoil lights set in two-centred arches with foiled heads. The east window is part of the chancel arch. The north wall of the north aisle contains two reset 14th-century windows, while the west wall features restored late 13th-century windows.

Inside, the north arcade consists of four bays with two-centred arches supported by round columns that have moulded capitals and bases. The nave roof is divided into four bays and includes queen struts and arch bracing. The chancel arch is two-centred and has two chamfered orders, with the inner order resting on corbels carved with stiff leaf foliage and mask heads. A late 13th-century arcade has been reset in the wall between the chancel and the north chapel, featuring two bays of two-centred arches with two chamfered orders. The south wall of the chancel includes a sedilia and piscina.

In the west wall of the nave, there are four 12th-century tomb slabs that were reset in 1907. A brass memorial for Sir William LeMoyne, who died in 1404, and his wife is set in an Alwalton marble slab in the chancel.
