Church Of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is a former parish church that has been disused since before 1900 and now exists as a roofless shell. It dates from the 13th century and later. The structure is built from flint rubble with freestone dressings. It features a small, narrow west tower that is divided into four stages, with remnants of an embattled parapet adorned with panels of flint flushwork. On the south face of the tower, there are two panels displaying the crowned monogram SM, positioned on either side of a central panel that has a circular ornament with mouchettes. Below the parapet on the south side, there is a gargoyle head. The top stage of the tower has two-light cusped early 14th-century windows on each face. The west window of the first stage was likely similar, but its tracery is now fragmentary.

The side walls of the nave and chancel rise to the tops of the windows, but these are now mostly open gaps, except for two openings at the west end of the nave, which contain remnants of lancets with trefoil heads and very deep inner splays. The east wall remains intact to full height and features the tracery of a three-light window with trefoil-headed lancets. The church was originally thatched. In 1933, when it was already in significant decay, its fittings were removed, including an early 15th-century traceried font that was taken to Lakenham church, as well as a Stuart pulpit, altar rails, holy table, font cover, and other fittings that were sent to Riddlesworth. For a description of the church in 1933, refer to Munro Cautley's "Suffolk Churches and their Treasures," page 285.
