Church of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a parish church located in Woodton, dating back to the medieval period. It is constructed of flint, with some sections rendered, and features stone dressings. The church includes a 12th-century west tower, a nave, and a south aisle from around 1300, along with a continuous chancel and a north vestry. The tower is embattled and consists of two stages, with a much repaired two-light west window that has a hood mould and a slit light above it with a stone head. The upper part of the tower is octagonal and has stone quoins, with bell-openings at the cardinal points, though the tracery has been lost.

The south aisle is buttressed and features a west window with two cusped lights and tracery that forms four quatrefoils in the head, along with a hood mould. There are two similar windows on the south side, which have been much restored, and between them is a three-light 19th-century window under a four-centred arch. The east aisle window is a restored three-light window with shafts that have bases and reticulated tracery, topped with a hood mould that has fleu-de-lys.

On the north side, there is a largely 19th-century vestry in the western bay that incorporates a medieval archway, with a low blind arch to its east. There are two medieval windows with two cusped lights and a 19th-century cusped Y-tracery window between them, as well as one 19th-century window with two cusped lights. The restored east window has three lights with reticulated tracery and features a memorial tablet dated 1701 below it, which has a scrolled head with a shield. The south porch, added in the 19th century, has stone dressings.

Inside, the church has an arch-braced aisle roof with tracery in the spandrels, while the nave and chancel have a 19th-century roof. The nave arcade consists of four bays, with the three easternmost being early 14th-century and featuring octagonal piers. The western bay was cut through later, leaving a small section of wall with attached polygonal shafts. There is a squint from the aisle, and the interior includes many hatchments. An early 17th-century pulpit is present, along with a rere-arch to the east aisle window that has fleuron moulding and a bearded head at the top. The east window also has a rere-arch with dog-tooth moulding.

Additional features include a cusped piscina with a moulded corbel at the base and drop-sill sedilia, a small Y-tracery light for the rood stair, and various 19th-century fittings, including a few poppy-head benches. A memorial to Anne, wife of Robert Suckling who died in 1653, features Ionic columns and a scrolled pediment enclosing a kneeling figure. The font, dating from the 12th century, has been recut and includes a central shaft with four detached shafts supporting the bowl.
