All Saints Church - St Christopher wall painting

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: All Saints Church - St Christopher wall painting. All Saints > 1400659 - 1400667 is situated at the western end of the hamlet, located on an elevation above the road which winds its way around it. After a fire gutted the church in 1633 it was rebuilt with the work having been completed in 1635 - the completion date was carved into the tower screen. The church has remained unchanged since then, including the Jacobean three-decker pulpit > 1400673 which is the only one of its kind in Norfolk still standing in the position which was favoured immediately after the Reformation. The octagonal C14 font bowl has a tracery decoration and a battlemented rim > 1400682. It stands below the wall painting depicting St Christopher which was uncovered in 1901. The box pews > 1400669 are graduated in size with the largest being the one which was used by Willby Hall, with their family arms > 1400671 displayed on the wall above it. The church has a set of royal arms to Charles I (1625-49) > 1400684 and an elaborately carved iron-bound poor box > 1400680 bears the date 1683. The church is kept locked.
