The Church Building

The oldest part of All Saints Church is the chancel. This section was built in the 1200s. The chancel is the area near the altar where the clergy usually sit.

Other parts of the church were added later. These were built between the 1300s and 1400s. They include the nave, which is the main part where people sit. The aisles, which are the walkways on the sides, were also added then. The church also has a tower.

Some parts of the church have been repaired and updated over time. The floor and plaster were fixed around 1857. The aisles, chancel, and tower were also restored in 1878.
