All Saints Church, Ballidon

The church dates originally from the 12th century.[1] Over the centuries the building has been partly rebuilt or restored, including in 1822 and in 1882. The last service in the church took place on 18 April 2003.[3] It was vested in the Friends of Friendless Churches during 2011.[2]

All Saints is constructed in limestone with grit-stone dressings, and it has a stone slate roof. Its plan consists of two cells, the nave and the chancel, with a south porch and a north vestry. At the west end is a gabled bellcote. On the south side of the church are square-headed windows, and at the east end is a two-light window; all of these contain Decorated-style tracery. At the west end is a lancet window.[1] In the north wall is a blocked doorway.[3] The south doorway is Norman, but has been much restored. Inside the church is a Neo-Norman chancel arch. The font is Perpendicular in style, with crude carving.[1] In the south wall above the font is an old fireplace, which suggests that there may have once been a room at a higher level.[3] The east window contains stained glass dated 1883.[1]
