Description
The Church of All Saints is a parish church featuring 13th-century fabric with elements from the 13th century and Perpendicular style. It has a west tower, a nave with a south porch, and a chancel. The west tower is constructed of flint with stone dressings, while the nave has a slated roof and the chancel is covered with black glazed pantiles. The 13th-century west tower includes quoins and south and west lancet windows, along with three square-headed two-light belfry windows and one single-light window. The tower is topped with a brick battlemented parapet.
The nave consists of two bays and has two south-facing three-light Perpendicular windows, one of which is arched with tracery and the other is straight-headed. The south porch features jambs and an arch from around 1300, set within Perpendicular squared stone and flint walls, and includes two blocked Perpendicular two-light windows. The north side of the nave has a blocked 13th-century door and one three-light Perpendicular window. The chancel's south side has one two-light arched Decorated window and one straight-headed two-light Perpendicular window, along with a three-light Perpendicular window on the east.
Inside, the tower has a recut round arch and a splayed window embrasure with an inserted lancet. There is an undecorated 15th-century octagonal font and a 15th-century wall painting on the south wall depicting three figures presiding over a martyrdom, possibly of St. Erasmus. The chancel arch has jambs from around 1300 with a later Decorated/Perpendicular double hollow chamfered arch. The chancel features Perpendicular rood stairs, ground-floor and loft doors, as well as chamfered brick sedilia and a piscina, which were likely originally plastered. The church contains 17th and 18th-century polished slate ledger slabs. The nave roof, which is arched and braced, dates from the 19th century, while the chancel roof is plastered. Benches and stalls were added during a restoration in 1909.
