History

All Saints is a delightful small church built of local clunch on a sarsen base.

It was originally built for St. Swithun's Priory in Winchester in the early thirteenth century.

The exterior retains a Norman door on the north side. Inside there is an unusual fourteenth-century lead font, a lovely chancel arch complete with a Green Man carving and a sculpture depicting the Stations of the Cross by Woolstone sculptor, Heidi Lloyd.

In Spring, the graveyard is a mass of primroses. One wonders how many walkers from the Ridgeway have, over the centuries, stopped by this church to appreciate its peace.
