Summary[edit]

Description
English: The church of All Saints in Shouldham - east window (detail). The church of All Saints > 1738436 - 1738504 is situated on an elevation to the east of the village, looking down a hillside that shows evidence of extensive earthworks > 1738428. The building dates mainly from the 14th century and is constructed from locally found carstone. It was extensively restored - with the chancel > 1738510 rebuilt to the designs of the London-based architect RJ Withers - in 1871. The pews date from 1871 and medieval bench ends were mounted onto some of them. The nave also contains several original C15 benches > 1738548 which have square ends with tracery cut into them, and the fine hammerbeam roof with carved angels > 1738565 is original also. The glass in the east window comes from Bell and Almond and was installed in 1877. The north nave window > 1738534 and the south chapel window > 1738543 are by the same artists and date from 1871 and 1872 respectively. An unusual memorial to Thomas Allen (d 1841) > 1738520 stands in the north-east corner of the chancel. The sculpture depicts Faith and is signed by W Groves who exhibited it in 1842 at the Royal Academy.
