All Saints' is a small, friendly church at the heart of the village of Clayton West. It was opened in 1875 to serve the local community and is still doing so today. Through our worship and involvement in Clayton West and the wider world, we hope to show something of God's love and concern for all.

The church is open daily from 8am until 4pm,later during the summer time. Please feel free to come inside and say a prayer or just enjoy a moment of quiet.

Inside All Saints' there is a lot to look at including the Kempe stained glass windows, the beautiful screen behind the altar celebrating Celtic saints and the Wintour Memorial which remins us of the loss of the first priest's son in the Battle of Jutland.

We have social events during the year including meals out and walks followed by a pub lunch. The walks are optional, you can still join us for lunch! everyone is welcome (you don't have to go to Church).
