Description

The Church of All Saints is a church that features a 15th-century tower and retains some late 12th-century elements in its interior. The church was largely rebuilt in 1855 by J W Hugall for Rev James Tripp, the Rector. It is constructed from coursed gritstone and has a graduated Westmorland slate roof, designed in the Norman Revival style.

The church includes a west tower, a nave with five bays, north and south aisles, a south porch, and a chancel with two bays. The west tower consists of four stages and features Perpendicular windows, offset diagonal buttresses, a clock, and a battlemented parapet. The nave's clerestory and aisles are adorned with round-headed lancet windows that have hoodmoulds and pilaster strips. The south door of the nave showcases much-restored beak-head decoration. The chancel also has similar windows and blind arcading, with an east window comprising three lancets.

Inside, the north aisle arcade is supported by quatrefoil piers and features single-step arches, with zig-zag ornamentation under the two western arches. The south arcade has three circular piers and one octagonal pier. The chancel arch, dating from the late 12th century, has hollow chamfers with billets. There is a monument in the north wall of the chancel dedicated to Sir Robert de Plumpton, who died around 1323, featuring the figure of a knight under a cusped recess. An engraving in the tower depicts the church as it appeared around 1854, prior to restoration.
