Description
The Church of All Saints is a Grade II* listed building located in Goosey Goosey Green. It dates from the early to mid-13th century, with a late 16th-century chancel and a north-west vestry added in the 19th century. The church is constructed of roughcast over limestone rubble, featuring ashlar dressings and a stone slate roof. It consists of a nave and chancel, with a late 16th-century three-light chamfered stone-mullioned window on the east side and similar two-light windows along the side walls. The north side of the nave includes one early to mid-13th-century lancet window, three late 19th-century lancets, one 13th-century offset buttress, and three late 19th-century buttresses. The south wall has one late 19th-century lancet and a late 16th-century four-centred moulded doorway leading to a late 19th-century double-leaf door. Above the early to mid-13th-century wide lancet west window is a hood mould. The church has a gabled roof and a late 19th-century west bellcote.
Inside, the chancel features three Lib arch-braced collar-trusses with curved windbraces and clasped purlins, along with cusped decoration on the wall-plates. The nave contains an early 17th-century panelled octagonal pulpit on a 19th-century base, displaying the arms of George III above the door. The crown-post roof, which rests on 13th-century face-mask corbels, is primarily late 19th-century but incorporates some older, possibly medieval, timbers. There is also 15th-century stained glass in the south-east window.
