Church Of All Saints

The Church of All Saints is an Anglican parish church dating back to the 13th century, with significant additions from the 14th century and a restoration in 1862 by T.B. Miles of Salisbury. It is constructed of uncoursed dressed limestone with a tiled roof. The church's layout includes a nave, chancel, a north aisle and transept, a west tower, and a south porch.

The gabled south porch features a double-chamfered pointed doorway and a coped verge with a saddlestone. The nave, located on either side of the porch, has two-light square-headed windows dating back to the 14th century, characterised by ogee lights, hoodmoulds, and buttresses with offsets. A rainwater head dated 1862 is also present. The chancel has a pointed priest’s door and a cusped lancet window on each side; its eastern end features diagonal buttresses and a restored east window with three lancet lights set within a pointed arch with a hoodmould. The north side of the chancel has two lancet windows. A small vestry, attached to the north side of the chancel, contains a pair of cusped lancet windows. The north transept has an early 14th-century window with three lights and reticulated tracery under a hoodmould. The north aisle also includes a two-light, 14th-century-style window with ogee lights and a hoodmould, alongside a cusped lancet.

The three-stage west tower, dating to the 15th century, includes diagonal buttresses, string courses, and an offset bellstage. The west doorway has a hollow-chamfered pointed arch. The second stage has arrow loops with Tudor-arched lights on the west face, while the bellstage has two-light pointed Perpendicular windows on all sides, topped by a moulded parapet with corner pinnacles.

Inside, a double-chamfered inner doorway is present. The nave features a scissor-rafter roof and a tiled floor. The north aisle has two ogee and chamfered pointed arches to a low arcade, supported by a cylindrical pier and half-cone corbels. A pointed doorway leads to the west tower. A double-chamfered arch provides access to the north transept, erected on octagonal pilasters. A fine 13th-century pointed, double-chamfered chancel arch rests on three shafts with moulded capitals and a hoodmould with foliated terminals. The three-bay chancel has an arch-braced roof on stone corbels, partially concealed by a plaster ceiling. A C19 pulpit incorporates a finely carved early 17th-century panel. Additional interior features include C19 pews, a communion rail, a cylindrical font, and a stone tomb lid featuring a primitive carved relief of the Virgin and Child, possibly dating to the 12th century.

Memorial tablets include a limestone and marble wall tablet to Samuel Bracher (died 1830), with fluted pilasters, a frieze with paterae, and a broken pediment with an urn, and an oval marble tablet with an urn finial to Rev Henry Fricker (died 1792). Further early 19th-century marble tablets commemorate the King family. Good quality late 19th-century stained glass depicts the Crucifixion and Resurrection in the east window; a south nave window has naturalistic floral painting and painted roundels portraying Sarah and Nora Walter (died 1890 and 1935 respectively).
