Description

The Church of All Saints is a disused parish church dating from the 12th century, with restorations originally dated to 1587 by Salkeld and 1862 by George Moore, although both stones are now missing. The building is constructed of mixed sandstone and limestone rubble, partly coursed, with a 19th-century addition featuring flush quoins. It has a graduated greenslate roof.

The church consists of a 2-bay nave, which is in ruins with collapsed walls above sill height, and a 2-bay chancel that includes a south side chapel. The nave's interior is filled with fallen rubble. The chancel features one original narrow round-headed window on the north side, which has been much repaired, while all other windows are from the 19th century, including a three-light east window under a hoodmould. The chapel has a three-light south window and a west entrance.

The chancel arch is Norman and has been blocked. Inside, there are 16th-century timber roof trusses, a 17th-century communion rail, and an early medieval tub-shaped font with incised collar lines. There are wall plaques commemorating Thomas Denton of Warnell from 1697 and Thomas Moore by John Adams of Acton. Iron rails separate the side chapel from the chancel. The chapel was built by George Moore for his wife, who died in 1858. The church became redundant when a new church was built between 1897 and 1899 and is now only used once a year.
