Description
The Church of All Saints is a church built in 1854 by the architect Salvin for George Head Head. It features rough dressed red sandstone walls with ashlar quoins and dressings, topped by a graduated slate roof with coped gables and kneelers. The structure includes a two-storey south-east tower, a single-storey nave with five bays, and a two-bay chancel. The square tower, which projects from the south wall between the nave and chancel, has chamfered plinth courses and a string course, pointed windows, and louvred vents with hood moulds. It also has a moulded cornice with projecting water spouts at the corners and a castellated parapet.
There is a projecting gabled stone porch on the south wall featuring a pointed arch and a slate roof. The windows consist of one double lancet and single lancets with trefoil heads. Inside, there is a 19th-century font, 20th-century pews, a carved oak pulpit, and a panelled wood altar dado and rail. The church has stained glass in five side windows, some dating from 1879 and believed to be by Powell, while the other windows have diamond leaded plain glass. This site is not of ancient origin.
