All Saints Church is a historic Anglican church in Shorncote, Gloucestershire, England under the care of The Churches Conservation Trust.[1] It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building.[2]
History
All Saints dates from about 1170. Alterations were made to it, including the addition of a bellcote, in the 14th century. The church was restored by William Butterfield in 1883.[1] The church was declared redundant on 1 July 1984, and was vested in The Churches Conservation Trust on 18 March 1987.[3]
Architecture
The church is in Norman style. It is constructed in stone rubble, with stone slate roofs. The plan consists of a nave with a north aisle and a south porch, and a small chancel. On the east gable of the nave is a double bellcote, over which is a pierced quatrefoil. In the west, south and east walls are two-light windows. The south doorway is Norman, with Early English capitals on the outer columns. On the south side of the chancel is a priest's door between two straight-headed Perpendicular windows.[2]
Inside the church are wagon roofs. The chancel arch is narrow and pointed and contains 15th-century gates.[4] The arch is decorated with Norman style carving.[5] The font is also Norman. In the chancel is a piscina and a credence shelf dating from the 14th century, and in the north wall is a 15th-century Easter Sepulchre.[2] On the chancel walls are medieval wall paintings depicting patterns and foliage. The pulpit dates from the early 18th century and has a tester suspended above it.[4] Also in the church are the Royal coat of arms carved in stone.[1]
