• The church of All Saints consists of a chancel, nave, north aisle, south trancept, south aisle, west tower and modern south porch. The walls are of coursed rubble with stone dressings, and the roofs are covered with lead and stone slates.
• The church is not mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086 but the 12th century south doorway points to a stone church of that period. The chancel, nave and south aisle were rebuilt in the middle of the 13th century, and the north arcade was formed and the aisle added about 1325. The chancel arch was rebuilt to the full width of the chancel in about 1340, and the south aisle wall were probably raised and reconstructed about the same time. The south transept was built in the early part of the 15th century, and the west tower towards the end of that century.
• Early in the 16th century the clearstory was added to the nave, thje whole of the roofs were renewed and the north aisle largely rebuilt. The church was drastically restored in 1864, when the south transept, south aisle clearstory, porch and the upper part of spire were rebuilt. The spire (98 ft.) was struck by lightening on 25th June 1935, after which it was restored.
