near to Gresham, Norfolk, Great Britain

The church of All Saints

The church of All Saints has a round tower; extensively restored in 1856, the most noteworthy feature of this church is its medieval font: one of only 40-odd existing seven sacrament fonts, and one of the best of this type in East Anglia > Link

. The peculiar lack of ornamentation of All Saints > Link

is ascribed to Lt Col Batt - a triple memorial to three of his sons, all killed in WWII, can be viewed in the chancel > Link

- who demanded that all decorations and ornaments in the church be removed; on refusal of the vicar, he took the church to court and won. The church is open every day. For more information see: Link
