After the Fire.  

The fire was followed by a substantial rebuild of the east end of the church in 1970.

A wonderful stone altar was discovered that had been buried to hide it from Puritan vandalism at the Reformation, and is now placed in the centre of the chancel.



The cleaning of the walls revealed the sensational medieval wall paintings that are one of the great historic attractions of this important, Grade 1 listed church.

After the fire, a new East Window was commissioned from the eminent 20th Century stained glass artist and designer, John Hayward (1929-2007), who completed over 200 windows in churches, including the magnificent West Window in Sherborne Abbey. The East Window at All Saints is one of the most striking features of the church, and represents Christ with hands extended backed by hints of Lincolnshire landscape, agriculture and industry, and a strong use of red which signifies both the fire in the church and the coming of the Holy Spirit.
