Description

The Church of All Saints is a Grade I listed building located in Wickhambrook. This church, primarily built in the 14th century, features a random flint and stone construction with stone dressings. The 14th-century tower and the north and south aisles are topped with castellated parapets. The tower showcases flint and stone chequer work in its parapet and angle buttresses. The aisles are adorned with impressive 14th-century Decorated windows that have intersecting tracery.

The north doorway is notable for its two orders of shafts and dog tooth ornamentation in the hood mould. There is a chapel to the north of the chancel, which now serves as a vestry and contains a 13th-century piscina with a dog tooth ornamented arch. The north porch dates back to the 14th century. Inside, the nave features a hammer-beam roof from the 16th to 17th centuries. The church houses significant memorials, including brasses of Thomas Burrough, who died in 1597, set in a recess enclosed by diagonally placed wood bars. Additionally, there is a fine alabaster tomb with a recumbent figure of Sir Thomas Higham, crafted by Nicholas Stone, and a square font that has been cut to an octagon in the 15th century.
