Geocache Description:

A simple church micro ... nothing to see here ... apart from the church ... obviously! (oh ... and the micro!!)

 

  • The church of All Saints consists of a chancel, nave, north aisle, south aisle, west tower and modern south porch. The walls are of pebble and stone rubble with stone dressings, except for the chancel which is of brick. The roofs are covered with tiles and lead.
  • The church is mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086, but the earliest parts now standing are the nave arcades; that of the south was built around 1260 and that of the north around 1280, and the aisle walls built at the same time, probably remain although much altered.
  • Early in the 15th century the tower was built and new windows and doorways formed in the north aisle. About 1500, the south aisle was similarly modified, and slightly later, the arcade was rebuilt and the clearstory added. The stairway of the tower was repaired in 1687, and the chancel is dated 1726. The porch was built in 1851, in which year several repairs were done; other restoration work took place in 1853 and 1860.
