Description
The Church of All Saints is a historic church located in Terrington, with parts dating back to the 11th century. The south nave wall is from the 11th century, the north arcade from the 12th century, the chancel arch from the 14th century, and the tower, north aisle, and chancel from the 15th century. The south aisle and porch were added in 1868. The church is constructed of limestone rubble with a Westmorland slate roof.
The building features a west tower, a 2-bay nave with aisles and a south porch, and a 3-bay chancel that includes a north chapel and vestry. The tower has a Tudor-arched doorway beneath a triangular relieving arch and a 3-light 19th-century window with Perpendicular tracery on the west front. It is supported by diagonal buttresses with offsets and topped with an embattled parapet and pinnacles.
The nave includes a porch with a pointed doorway and an aisle with a gabled 3-light window to the south. On the north side, there are 2-light Perpendicular windows, with an earlier mass dial inserted to the east. The clerestory has three 2-light cusped straight-headed windows. In the chancel, there is one 2-light and two 3-light square-headed windows on the south side, along with a pointed priests' door. The north side features 2-light square-headed windows. The east end has a 19th-century 3-light window in the Decorated style, accompanied by a 2-light 19th-century window in the same style for the vestry.
Inside, the south wall of the nave, which was once an external wall, is largely made of herringbone masonry and has a round-headed deeply-splayed window from the 11th century on the west side. The window's head is cut into a re-used stone, likely a grave slab, featuring a four-strand plait pattern. The north arcade consists of two round arches of unequal size supported by round piers with scalloped and decorative capitals.
There is a monument in the tower dedicated to Lewis Estob, who died in 1735, featuring a black marble plaque in a white stone surround with swags and flanked by two birds on an elaborate cartouche. Above the chancel arch, there is a painted wooden Royal Arms from 1660. The glass in the south aisle window was created by Morris and Co. after a design by Burne-Jones.
