Description

The Church of All Saints is a church built in the late 1930s, with the west range, which includes the entrance, baptistry, and chapel of the Blessed Sacrament, completed in 1951, and the remainder finished in 1957. It was designed by N.F. Cachemaille-Day. The church is constructed of brownish brick in Flemish bond, with concrete dressings and roofs.

The tall square nave consists of seven by seven bays and features lower side aisles, a central circular lantern, and a semi-domical sanctuary, along with north-west vestries. The western range has a lower central entrance bay flanked by lower three-bay wings. The entrance features two wide steps leading up to a double board door set in a wide, stepped surround, with a Lamb of God sculpture above it, created by B. Copnall. The wings are defined by broad pilasters and have stepped surrounds to the concrete-lintelled windows, which are adorned with decorative metal grilles above.

Inside, the nave has a single large segmental-arched window on both the north and south sides, with smaller upper windows. The leaded lantern includes concrete mullions and supports a tall concrete cross finial. The nave's aisles and sanctuary are characterized by wide semi-circular arches, while the nave itself is spanned by two reinforced concrete arches that cross and support the lantern. The roof is made of concrete beams using a diagrid system. The baptistry and chapel feature fluted concrete ceilings, and the sanctuary is covered in silver leaf painted with angels.

Notable interior fittings include a concrete altar set on four large columns, an organ loft at the west end, a carved octagonal concrete font, colored glass in the lantern, and a suspended double-corona-type light fitting in the nave. Cachemaille-Day regarded this church as one of his most significant works after the war.
