Summary[edit]

Description
English: The church of All Saints - rood screen (Thurlton Dragon). Thurlton was in the King's Hundred of Clavering, once held by Archbishop Stigand (deposed 1070) but, at the time of the Domesday survey, by William de Noyers. A church is mentioned in the Survey in Oder's land at Thurlton. Both Roger Bigod and Ralph of Beaufour had holdings in Thurlton at Domesday. The tower of All Saints church > 1511348 was built in the 15th century and the north dorway with cencing angels in the spandrels > 1511394 dates from the same time but the ornate Norman doorway > 1511399 on the south wall is earlier. The church was extensively restored in the mid-18th century but a mid-to-late 15th century wall painting depicting St Christopher > 1511455 has survived, albeit in much faded condition. An hourglass stand > 1511448 is still in its original place on the wall beside the C19 pulpit, and the octagonal font > 1511465 is original also. The medieval rood screen > 1511410 has had its panels removed. The "Thurlton Dragon" is depicted in one of the spandrels. All Saints church is open every day.
