English: All Saints Church This Grade B listed church originally dates from the 12th century, although there are indications of an earlier building here. A tower was added in the 13th century and a porch in the 14th century. For many years it had a taller tower, but this was severely damaged by a storm in 1771, and the subsequent rebuilding was of this shorter castellated version, topped with a steeple. However in 1809 the steeple was struck by lightning and caught fire. It was not replaced, resulting in the present profile of a tower shorter than the surrounding roof.
In 1957, following demolition of Bark Hart House, a Tudor house to the south of the church where Elizabeth I had once stayed, the church was extended over part of the vacated land (the extension can be seen to the right of the photo).
