All Saints church - C14 baptismal font

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: All Saints church - C14 baptismal font. All Saints church > 1572147 - 1572170 stands beside the B 1077 (Church Road), the main thoroughfare through the village of Shelfanger. The tower has a square chequerwork decoration created by alternating white limestone and flint and it is topped by a red tiled pyramidal roof . Interestingly, the tower is slightly off-centre > 1572157 and not entirely square to the nave walls. The C16 north porch > 1572168 still has the original timber framing with black flint and mortar infill. The oldest feature of the building is a wall painting > 1572177 in the south-eastern corner of the chancel, which was discovered in 1966. The mural has been dated to the mid 13th century. The C14 octagonal font was given by Adam Bosville whose initials are carved into the bowl. The stained-glass windows > 1572173 date from the time when the church was intensively restored (1876-1897) and were made by Clayton & Bell. All Saints church is open every day.
