All Saints Church, Ellough

All Saints Church is a redundant Anglican church in the parish of Ellough, Suffolk, England. The church is medieval in origin and is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The church stands in an isolated position on the top of a low hill, some 2.5 miles (4 km) to the south-east of Beccles. History The church dates from the 14th century, and a south porch was added in 1602, paid for by Thomas Love. Wall paintings were removed in 1643 when William Dowling, a strict puritan, visited the church. Land from the glebe of the church of St Marys in Willingham St Mary, the site of which is visible from the church, was consolidated with Ellough in the 18th century. The church was restored in 1882 by William Butterfield, including the replacement of the east window. Its parish was combined with that of Weston in the 1970s and All Saints was largely closed with only occasional services taking place. Richard Aldous Arnold became rector of Ellough in 1830, a post he held for more than 60 years. He was the father of Australian politician William Munnings Arnold and the rower Frederick Arnold, both of whom were born at Ellough. Memorials to Arnold and his wife are found on the south wall of the chancel. Arnold is credited with building the parsonage immediately to the west of the church, which dates to around 1830 and is a Grade II listed building. Architecture All Saints is constructed in flint rubble with stone dressings. The nave is rendered, and the roofs are felted. Its plan consists of a two-bay nave, a two-bay chancel, a south porch, a north organ chamber and a west tower. The tower dates from the 14th century and is unbuttressed. It has two-light bell openings containing Y-tracery, and a flat parapet. The nave contains 15th-century two-light windows. Its north doorway is blocked, and the south nave doorway and porch date from the 19th century. The chancel has two-light windows on its sides, and a three-light 19th-century east window. Inside the church is a 14th-century piscina and a sedilia. The stairs leading to the former rood loft are still present. The octagonal font dates from the 15th century, and its bowl is carved with shields and flowers. The reredos and the chancel ceiling were designed by Butterfield. The memorials include two brasses in the sanctuary, and there is a ledger slab dating from the middle of the 18th century in the chancel. Many of the fittings have been removed.

All Saints Church, Evesham

All Saints Church is an active Anglican church in the centre of the town of Evesham, Worcestershire, England. All Saints and its neighbour St Lawrence's Church were built by the Benedictine monks of Evesham Abbey in the 12th century to serve the people of Evesham. All Saints is now the town's parish church, as St Lawrence's was declared redundant in the 1970s. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building by Historic England. History Intriguingly, the two parish churches share the same churchyard. After the Dissolution All Saints adopted a strongly Puritan method of preaching and worship (in common with many other English churches). This style lasted until, roughly, the major Victorian restoration (1872-6) by Frederick Preedy, when All Saints moved to a high church (Anglo-Catholic) tradition of worship. Through the 1970s it became increasingly clear that the upkeep of two medieval churches, with all the attendant challenges and problems, was too great a burden for the two congregations. A series of meetings and discussions, led by the Revd Canon A. Webb, led to the decision to keep only one church: All Saints. The parish of St Lawrence, Evesham, was declared redundant on 8 December 1977. In the following year the church was vested in the Redundant Churches Fund (since 1994 called Churches Conservation Trust). and on 1 January 1978 the parishes of All Saints and St Lawrence were united. Following this amalgamation the worship at All Saints moved more to a ‘middle churchmanship’ style. Organ The first-recorded church organ in All Saints was originally built for the Rotunda in Ranelagh Gardens, Chelsea, where it may have been played by Mozart. In 1805, after Rotunda had been broken up, the great reeds were taken out and the organ taken to Evesham. This organ was replaced as part of the Victorian restoration of the church. In 1875 a new organ, built by Nicholson with 3 manual positions and a pneumatic action, was installed in the new organ loft. In 1904, as a memorial of the foundation of Evesham Abbey (701) and the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901), the organ was enlarged and improved by the addition of a third manual pneumatic action and extra stops. In 1967 the organ was significantly enlarged by Nicholson. In 1991 the organ was significantly rebuilt by Nicholson, now with electronic controls and a mobile console. References
All Saints Church, Fleet

All Saints' Church is the Anglican parish church of the town of Fleet in the county of Hampshire, England. It is notable for its architect, William Burges and was constructed between 1861 and 1862. A Grade II* listed building, the church was very badly damaged in an arson attack in 2015. An eight-year restoration saw the church reopen in April 2023. History and description The church was designed by Burges and was built between 1861 and 1862. It was extended to the west in 1934 by A. J. Steadman and a Lady Chapel was added in 1958 by John Purser. The church was commissioned by the local squire, Charles Edward Lefroy, secretary to the Speaker of the House of Commons as a memorial to his wife, Janet Lefroy. It cost £3,323. It has been listed Grade II* on the National Heritage List for England since June 1987. Pevsner says of Fleet that "it has no shape, nor character nor notable buildings, except one", that one being All Saints. The church is of red brick and its plan is "simple in the extreme." The interior too is simply decorated but the massive sculpture, particularly of the Lefroys' tomb and of the gabled arch below which it originally sat is quintessentially Burges, "not so much muscular (gothic) as muscle-bound". Janet Lefroy was originally a Walker, daughter of James Walker, who established the great marine engineering company of Walker and Burges with Alfred Burges, father of William. This family connection led to Burges obtaining the commission. The interior was significantly altered in the later twentieth century by the removal of the Lefroy tomb from its original position and by the whitewashing of the apse. Of these alterations, Pevsner comments; "And so a work by a none too prolific genius is irreparably spoiled." The churchyard contains Commonwealth war graves of eight servicemen from World War I and one from World War II. Fire Far greater damage was caused in 2015 by an arson attack. On 22 June the roof and much of the interior was destroyed by a major fire. Daniel Finnerty, a seventeen-year-old local, was subsequently arrested for suspected arson. In November 2015, at Winchester Crown Court, Finnerty pleaded guilty to two charges of arson and was sentenced to four years in a Youth Offender Institution (reduced to 3+1⁄2 years on appeal) and to a three-year extended licence. The church was returned to a condition where it could hold services by 30 April 2023 when it was reconsecrated. Gallery Notes References Pevsner, Nikolaus; Lloyd, David (1967).

All Saints Church (Fulham)

Die der Church of England zugehörige All Saints’ Church war bereits vor Reformation die Pfarrkirche von Fulham in der ehemaligen Grafschaft county von Middlesex. Gegenwärtig ist sie eine anglikanische Kirche im Londoner Stadtteil Fulham; sie trägt das Patrozinium Allerheiligen, ist als Grade-II-Bauwerk eingestuft und gehört zum Major Churches Network. Lage Der Londoner Stadtteil Fulham liegt etwa 7 km südwestlich des Trafalgar Square in einer Höhe von knapp 10 m. Die All Saints Church befindet sich – umgeben von einem Friedhof – unmittelbar an der Themse neben dem nördlichen Zugang zur Putney Bridge; diese hat – als einzige Brücke in England – je eine Kirche an ihren Enden: Die St. Mary’s Church liegt auf dem Südufer in Putney, die All Saints’ Church liegt auf dem Nordufer in Fulham. Gebäude und Kirchhof liegen nahe dem Bishop’s Park. Die Kirche hat eine lange Verbindung mit den Bischöfen von London, die Grundherrn (Lords of the Manor) von Fulham waren; auf dem Friedhof sind viele von ihnen bestattet. Der nahe gelegene Fulham Palace war die frühere Bischofsresidenz. Geschichte Die erste Erwähnung einer Kirche an derselben Stelle datiert aus dem Jahr 1154; im Jahr 1445 ist erstmals der Name All Saints Church bezeugt. Abgesehen vom Glockenturm (13. Jh. mit späteren Umbauten), stammt die gegenwärtige Kirche aus der spätviktorianischen Epoche (1880–81), die von spätmittelalterlichem, d. h. spätgotischem Formengut geprägt war. Architektur Das Äußere des etwa 30 m hohen Turms ist mit Bruchsteinen verkleidet; die Kirche selbst hat eine Außenhaut aus nur grob behauenen Steinen. Das Innere der Kirche ist dreischiffig und basilikal angelegt. Die Grenze zwischen Langhaus und Chor ist durch Triumphbögen gekennzeichnet; alle Bauteile haben Holzdecken. Südlich neben der rechteckigen Apsis findet sich die sogenannte Lady Chapel. Ausstattung In und außerhalb der Kirche befinden sich viele Gedenk- und Grabsteine – auch aus der früheren Kirche. Die meisten Gegenstände stammen jedoch aus dem 19. Jahrhundert. Grabstätten Mehrere Bischöfe von London sind auf dem Friedhof begraben.
