Parish Church Of All Saints (Inworth)

The Parish Church of All Saints in Inworth dates back to the early 11th century, with later additions. It is constructed from carved flint-rubble, pudding stone, freestone, and Roman brick, featuring brick and limestone dressings. The nave and chancel have roofs made of red plain tiles, while the tower, built in 1876, is made of red brick and includes diagonal buttresses and a staircase tower on the north side.

The chancel, primarily from the 11th century, was extended with a new east wall in the 14th century. The east window dates to around 1876. The north wall features an 11th-century window with one round-headed light and double splays, while the south wall has a matching 11th-century window flanked by two 14th-century windows, each with two cinquefoiled lights and tracery in a two-centred head. The south doorway, dating from around 1876, is accompanied by an 11th-century semi-circular chancel arch supported by square arches on the west side. There are two squints flanking the arch, with the northern one likely from the 13th century and the southern one being modern.

The nave, which is from the 11th century, has undergone alterations in the 15th and 19th centuries. The north wall contains two windows, one from the 15th century with two cinquefoiled lights in a square head and a moulded label, and a west window from around 1876. The south wall has two early 16th-century brick windows with three plain lights in a four-centred head, along with another window from around 1876. Adjacent to the south door are the splays and round head of an 11th-century window. The early 16th-century south door features double chamfered jambs and a segmental pointed arch made of brick.

The nave roof, dating from the 14th century, has seven cants with moulded ashlar plates, cambered tie beams, and crown posts with moulded bases and capitals. The south porch, built around 1876, is gabled in red brick with a red plain tile roof. Some early 16th-century timber has been reused in the roof, including moulded wall plates. The church also contains some 14th and 15th-century glass, as well as 12th-century wall paintings on the east wall of the nave, which are partly decorative and include figures such as a bishop. Additionally, there is a late 15th-century screen and carved benches from the same period.
