History
All Saints' Church was built at the expense of Lord and Lady Manners as a memorial church to their daughter, Mary Christine, who died of cholera in 1904 during a visit to India.[4] Designed by the architect Detmar Blow, the foundation stone of the church was laid on 9 October 1905 by Lady Manners and it was built by Messrs Newton of Hitchin, Hertfordshire.[5]
The church was dedicated by the Bishop of Winchester, Herbert Edward Ryle, on 17 October 1906,[5] and the church then began serving the population of Thorney Hill, Bransgore and other localities.[5] A special service was held on 8 October 2006 by the Bishop of Winchester, Michael Scott-Joynt, to commemorate the church's centenary.[6]
Architecture
All Saints', described by Historic England as a "remarkable Edwardian Baroque church", is built of Caen stone and rendered brick. The aluminum roof features a cupola on the western side.[2] The church was designed to seat approximately 100 persons.[5] Notable features of the interior include a bronze effigy of the Manners' son, John, killed in action in 1914,[7] and a mural painted in 1922 by Phoebe Anna Traquair in memory of Lady Manners, who died in 1920.[2][7]
