The church of All
Saints consists of a chancel, 19th century organ
chamber and vestry, nave, north aisle, south aisle, tower at the
north-west corner and south porch. The walls are mostly of rubble with
stone dressings, but the eastern end of the south aisle is of ashlar,
and the tower is largely of red brick. The roofs are of lead.
The
earliest work now remaining is in the south arch of the tower which was
evidently the western arch of an earlier 13th century arcade. The tower itself
was built at the end of the 14th century, and during the 15th century a general
rebuilding of the church took place, beginning with the south aisle and south
porch; the nave arcades and the north aisle were next and, finally around 1500,
the chancel was rebuilt. The tower has since been partially rebuilt with brick
and large buttresses were built against it, possibly in the 17th century. The
chancel, nave and north aisle were restored, and the organ chamber and vestry
built in 1859. The eastern end of the south aisle was rebuilt in
1861.
In 1668 All Saints took over the registers of St John the Baptist
church and All Saints church became known as All Saints & St. John's.
However, it is now generally referred to just as All Saints.
