All Saints Church, Bolton

The church is long and narrow, constructed in stone with slate roofs. It has a simple plan consisting of a nave, and a chancel with a south porch. On the west gable is a bellcote with a saddleback roof.[3][4] Its Norman features include the south and north doorways (the north is blocked), and slit windows towards the east end of the north and south walls of the chancel.[4]

Along the south wall of the nave are three eighteenth century round headed windows. In the south wall of the chancel are, in addition to the slit window, a fourteenth/fifteenth century square headed window, and two lancet windows, one of which has been shortened to accommodate a seventeenth century square headed doorway. The east window has three lights.

The main south doorway in the porch has a semicircular head, carved capitals, and a hoodmould decorated with rosettes. Above the north doorway are two twelfth century carved stones, one depicting two jousting knights, the other with an illegible inscription.[3] Inset in the south wall to the west of the porch is upright female effigy that was probably originally a coffin lid.[4]

Inside the church, the semicircular chancel arch, dating from the seventeenth century, contains nineteenth century tracery.[3] Above the chancel arch are the Royal arms of Queen Victoria.[4] At the west end of the church is a gallery, and on the walls of the church are benefactors' boards. On the wall adjacent to the door is a poor box dated 1623.[3] The font consists of a round bowl on a square pedestal, with a cover dated 1687.

The stained glass in the east window and in one of the windows in the south wall of the chancel is by Clayton and Bell.[4]
