Childwall, All Saints

Built in the 15th century, probably on the site of an 11th century chapel mentioned in the Doomsday Book, All Saints is the only mediaeval church in Liverpool.

The tower was rebuilt in 1810 to the same design as the old one for a cost of £1,750, but reconstruction and extension was a regular feature of its history viz: Plumbe Chapel 1716, choir vestry 1739, the north aisle extension 1834.

There are some fine hatchments on the walls of the nave and north aisle commemorating the demise of several influential families of the area. Above the chancel arch are the arms of Charles II, who may have visited the neighbourhood in 1664.

The nave once sloped downward and you had to go down steps into the chancel. However, in 1853 the chancel was raised three feet, bringing it level with the nave.

A Kempe window of 1905, given in memory of Sir Andrew Barclay and Lady Walker, the donor of the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, is located in the south aisle. It figures St Andrew and an un-named Saint dressed as depicted in the armour of Ephesians Chapter 6.
