Description

The Church of All Saints, originally a chapel, was rebuilt in 1761, as noted on an inscription on the east wall. This wall also features a lintel from an earlier chapel, inscribed with the date of consecration, July 21, 1678. The church underwent additions in 1881, which are marked by a brass plaque on the vestry door. It is constructed from mixed red and calciferous sandstone rubble, with red sandstone V-jointed quoins set on a chamfered plinth. The roof is made of graduated greenslate, featuring coped gables and kneelers, while the tower has a flat roof.

The building includes a large square two-storey tower and porch at the west end, and a five-bay nave and chancel with a north vestry. The west entrance is framed by a quoined surround with a keystone, and there is a narrow round-headed window above it. The upper part of the tower, added in 1881, has Norman-style louvred vents, and a semicircular stair turret projects from the north wall.

Inside, the nave and chancel feature large 18th-century leaded windows set in round-arched surrounds with keystones, and there is a tripartite east window. The interior includes parts of the chancel screen and panelling that may be made from reused wood from box pews. The pulpit is crafted from a reused carved oak panel with a Latin inscription and the initials M.W. dated 1628. A carved oak Bishop's seat is dated 1884, and there is an oak panelled chest with the initials G.C. and the date 1715. Various white marble wall plaques are present, including one dedicated to the Reverend Robert Monkhouse from 1822, created by Musgrave Lewthwaite Watson. The church also features late 19th-century and early 20th-century stained glass, with seating installed in 1881.
