A small church on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds. All Saints is known as The Rambler's Church, as for many years it afforded shelter (both spiritual and physical!) to walkers on the Viking Way long-distance footpath, which runs right past its door. The interior of the church features delightful carved head decoration on the nave pillars. A stained glass window depicting walkers and cyclists was donated by the Grimsby Wayfarers Association.
