All Saints’ Church, Wingerworth is a Grade I listed[1] parish church in the Church of England in Wingerworth, Derbyshire.

History

[edit]

The church dates from the 12th century with elements from the 13th, 14th and 15th centuries. The church was restored between 1903 and 1905 at a cost of £370 (equivalent to £50,186 in 2023)[2]and was rededicated by the Bishop of Southwell Sir Edwyn Hoskyns, 12th Baronet on 27 September 1905.[3] A new east window by Clayton and Bell was added in memory of Hon. Adelaide Augusta Wilhelmina Hunloke. The font was replaced and the nave and aisles were re-pewed.

More recently it was extended between 1963 and 1964 by the architects Naylor, Sale and Widdows.

Organ

[edit]

The organ was by Brindley & Foster and installed in 1867.[4] A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[5] In 2006 it was replaced by a new organ by Henry Groves & Son.
