Description
All Saints Church is a 19th-century building designed in the Lancet style. It features a four-bay nave with a south aisle, a chancel that includes an organ chamber to the north, and a southeast angle tower. The church is constructed of snecked limestone masonry with grimshall freestone dressings and has a steep gabled slate roof that sweeps out over the south aisle. The gable ends have parapets, and there is a Celtic cross finial on the eastern gable.
The south aisle has three bays and stops short of the west end. It includes two gabled dormers and a porch with an open timber structure on a stone base, flanked by steps. The round-arched doorway features ornate straps on the doors. The west aisle window has a cusped sexfoil design and is supported by stepped buttresses. The west end has tall tripartite stepped cusped lancets, a sill band, and additional stepped buttresses. A modern extension is located around the northwest corner, which includes a cut doorway. The north side of the nave has three tripartite stepped lancets, and there is a sexfoil window in the organ chamber located in the north transept.
The church has a two-stage square tower above the vestry in the south transept, which features a diagonal buttress and a polygonal vice in the southeast corner. The octagonal bell stage has cusped lancets for the louvres and quatrefoils above the raking buttresses, all with a continuous hoodmould. A chimney is located on the north side, and there are three narrow lancets at the top of the vice. The tower culminates in a short spire with gabled dormer louvers, and there is a door on the south side along with a pair of cusped windows on the east.
Inside, the nave arcade columns are squat and rise to broad pointed arches. The roof is an arch-braced hammer beam design with iron tension bars. The church also features a contemporary stone pulpit and font. The chancel arch is broad with two orders and has truncated half colonetts on corbels, leading to a boarded wagon roof. The internal sill band of the east window steps down to the sides.
