• "The church of All Saints is a building of rubble and stone in mixed styles, with some remains of Norman work, and exhibits various peculiarities of construction: it consists of chancel, nave, north aisle, south aisle, south porch and a western tower of the Late Decorated period containing a clock and 3 bells: the north aisle, which had been demolished, was rebuilt in 1864: the chancel retains its Norman arch and a double piscina, which, however, has been mutilated by the insertion in the Perpendicular period of three graduated sedilia: there are some good miserere benches: the altar-rails were brought from King's College chapel, Cambridge, and on the north side is an altar tomb with a brass, dated 1553: the nave dates from about the year 1300 and is of Late Geometric character: on the south side of the chancel arch is a singular recess, possibly a hagioscope: in the church is a fine monument by Flaxman to Mrs. Knight, d. 1800, and one by Chantrey to Mr. Samuel Knight, d. 1829: a stained window was placed in the north aisle in 1892 by the Rev. John Chapman, rector, to the memory of his wife, who died in 1889: there are 269 sittings. The register of baptisms dates from the year 1707; marriages, 1754; burials, 1709. The living, which had formerly a rector and vicar, is now a con-solidated rectory, net income £365, with residence, in the gift of King's College, Cambridge, and held since 1927 by the Rev. Charles Stanley Phillips M.A., D.D. of that college. There is a Baptist chapel, erected in 1865, with sittings for 150 persons, and a village institute." [Kelly's Directory - Cambridgeshire - 1929]
