History
Founded1881
DedicationAll Saints

It is a Classical building with a large portico and columns — an unusual style for such a late construction date (1881).

John Betjeman thought it was the Burgess Hill's only decent piece of architecture.

The exterior was painted in 1986, and the pews were removed in 2001.[1]
