Built in the 12^th century, the Grade II* listed, All Saints Church offers a unique opportunity to explore the centuries of evolving building styles in one location. Standing the testament of time, the beautiful medieval church has undergone multiple changes from rebuild in the 15 century -early 16^th century, exterior brick cladding in 1722, addition of the south aisle and organ chamber in 1885 and then further refurbishing in C19-C20.

The church is a richly layered building combining a range of traditional materials and Gothic architectural styles, creating a visibly layered structure. It is constructed primarily of Kentish ragstone rubble, with 18th-century stock brick to the north and east, areas of flint stone in some facades. The dominant style is Gothic, expressed in features such as embattled dressed stone parapets, buttresses, and traceried windows. The church’s materials reflect both local tradition and enduring craftsmanship. Intricate stained-glass windows, slate roofs, and lovingly preserved masonry contribute to its distinctive character. Internally, the church has a low-pitched timber nave roof with moulded beams and angel corbels, a flat domestic-style ceiling in the north chapel.

London Stone Conservation led a meticulous detail-oriented conservation project to repair the church’s façade stonework and roof. Works involved  stabilisation of the masonry throughout the façade, replacement of damaged stone copings, stone indent repairs, targeted brick repairs, stabilisation of the chimney tower, repairing lead flashing and rainwater goods. Focus was to use heritage appropriate lime mortars and create non-invasive repairs to restore the façade. We completed the works in 2025 with minimal intervention to restore the building in line with its original craftsmanship.
