The entry in Kelly's Directory 1905 reads :-

"The church of All Saints is a small and very plain edifice of local green sandstone, consisting of chancel and nave and a small wooden bell-cot containing one bell:

during the repairing of the church in 1804, two nobles of Edward IV. two angels of Henry VII. and several silver coins in a leather purse were found in the wall:

there are 6o sittings"
