Church Of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a Grade I listed parish church located on Eyke Church Road. The nave and chancel date back to the 14th century, and while there is no tower today, it is believed that a 12th-century crossing tower once existed, as indicated by the remnants of its base between the chancel and nave. A south porch was added in the 19th century. The church may have a cruciform layout, although this is not certain.

The nave is constructed from unknapped flint and rubble, topped with a slated roof, while the chancel is similarly built with flint rubble and has a plain tiled roof. The nave features diagonal stepped buttresses at the west end. On the north wall of the chancel, there is a blocked 12th-century window at a high level, which is thought to be a remnant of the tower. Below this window is a partially bricked-up doorway and a rectilinear window that may date to the 16th century. The church has a variety of windows on the north and south sides of the nave and chancel, including intersecting, curvilinear, and Y-tracery designs, mostly from the 19th century.

Inside the nave, the base of the former tower is visible, featuring west and east arches. The west arch is decorated with one order of colonnettes and a zigzag pattern, while the east arch has a similar design but with two zigzags. The eastern tower window can also be seen from inside. The font, dating to the 15th century, is octagonal and decorated with lions on the stem and symbols of the four evangelists and flowers on the sides of the bowl. A communion rail from the 18th century is present, along with two piscinas on the south wall of the chancel, dating to the 14th and 15th centuries; the 14th-century piscina is flanked by a dropped window sill sedilia. Additionally, there is a brass depicting two headless figures from around 1420, believed to represent John de Staverton and his wife, and a key from the 15th or 16th century, with the wards of the head forming the letters IKE.
