Description
The Church of All Saints is a parish church built in the Perpendicular style, with an earlier tower that has been rebuilt. The walls are made of flint with stone dressings, and the roof is covered with slates. The church features a west tower, south porch, nave, north and south aisles, a chancel, and the remains of a vestry to the east. The west tower, originally dating from around 1300, was rebuilt in 1975 using the remains of a collapsed tower, with shields from the battlements reset. The structure includes flint on a brick and concrete core. The two-storey porch has a staircase, and there is a similar staircase at the southeast corner of the tower and aisle. The church has six-bay aisles, a nave, and clerestory details from around 1400, along with a two-bay chancel featuring a five-light east window.
Inside, there is a six-bay arcade supported by quatrefoil piers, and the chancel is the same width as the nave, measuring 20 feet. The nave roof has been cased in later woodwork, while the chancel roof dates from around 1400. The floors in the nave and aisles are made of pammet tiles, enriched with 19th-century encaustic tiles in the chancel. There is a 19th-century pine bench in the nave.
Furnishings include 15th-century glazed fragments in the tracery of the north and south aisle windows, and early 19th-century figures in grisaille fields in the same windows. In the north aisle, there is a classical altar tomb for Bedingfield/Bacon from the second half of the 17th century. The west bay and the east bay of the north arcade feature two 18th-century Bedingfield cartouche monuments attached to the piers. In the chancel, there is an 18th-century cartouche on the north wall.
