All Saints Church - east window detail
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: All Saints Church - east window detail. All Saints church > 1361744 - 1361794 is a puzzling construction: the tower adjoins the east end of the building on the north-eastern end > 1361748. It can be reached from the chancel and is presently used as a vestry. Its west and east walls have splayed windows > 1361830 in typical Norman style with medieval decorations still in place. Some early wall paintings have been discovered under the whitewash coating here. The south > 1361857 and the north > 1361853 doorways are Norman as is the nave, which houses the original C15 octagonal font > 1361847. The great treasure of the church is the magnificent east window which contains glass from the Continent, brought to England by Lady Beauchamp Proctor during the Napoleonic wars, and believed to originate from Rouen Cathedral. The north aisle is a late 19th century addition and the meeting room, the All Saints Centre > 1361780 was added in 1993. Interestingly, the remains of a round tower at the west end were discovered in the course of its construction. This church is open every day during daylight hours. |
