History

Having been designed by Temple Moore, the church was built between 1903 and 1906.[1][2] Due to a conflict between Temple Moore and the first incumbent, the interior decoration was overseen by Walter Tapper.[2] The church was consecrated in 1907.[2] It is Gothic Revival in style. The church consists of a nave with double aisles, a north tower, an aisled chancel, and an eastern Lady Chapel.[1]

On 14 July 1955, the church was designated a grade II listed building.[1]

The album A Garland for Linda was recorded at All Saints in 1999.[3]
