All Saints Church, North Street
All Saints Church, North Street has been awarded a £500,000 grant from the National Heritage Lottery Fund to restore and conserve its medieval glass windows and create more opportunities for communities to engage with the heritage. The church contains exceptional collections of stained glass dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. The glass is not only of great quality, but it is also of exceptional interest, with windows depicting rare, and in one instance unique subjects in stained glass. The church is open most days, so do pop in to have a look around.
