Description
The Church of All Saints is a parish church located in Burnham Ulph, with evidence of its origins dating back to before 1200, particularly seen in the west bellcote, a north window, and the chancel arch. However, most of the details are from a restoration carried out in the late 19th century. The church is constructed of flint with stone dressings and features a red plain tiled roof. It has a three-bay nave, a two-bay chancel, and a south porch. The bellcote is simple with two arches, and there is a west window with 'Y' tracery.
On the south side of the nave, there are two 'Y' tracery windows from around 1300, with a simple trefoil-headed lancet from around 1200 situated between them. The north side of the nave contains a late Norman dog-toothed window with arched heads and quoins, along with a 19th-century lancet. The south side of the chancel has two paired lancets from the 19th century, a blocked south door, and a restored three-light Perpendicular east window. There is a late 19th-century vestry with a lancet featuring a trefoil head on the north side.
Inside, the church boasts a fine late 19th-century Transitional chancel arch with decorative keeled responds and a large capital that has been partly cut away for the insertion of a later rood screen. The arch is moulded, and there are two carved heads supporting the rood beam above. A simple ogee-headed piscina is present, along with a 19th-century arched braced roof that rests partly on five carved medieval heads at the east end. The pulpit is hexagonal and moulded from the 18th century, sitting on a crude base from the 19th century.
