History

Interior of All Saints, looking northeast

A Stamford church is mentioned in the Domesday Book. None of the original church is still in existence. There is a very small amount of 12th-century stonework, but the bulk of the church dates from the 13th century. Of that date is the exterior blind arcading, an unusual feature in a parish church.

Extensive additions were made by the Browne family in the 15th century. John Browne, Merchant of the Staple of Calais, funded the 15th-century construction. His son, William, Mayor of the Calais Staple, funded and built the steeple. Members of the Browne family are the only people buried inside the church. The late-15th century work is of "considerable inventiveness" in its use of architectural details such as ornamental battlements.

William Stukeley was vicar from 1730 to 1747.

The parish includes St John the Baptist's Church which was declared redundant in 2003.

Organ

The 1890 Hill organ was rebuilt in 1916 by James Jepson Binns.
