Brief description

"All Saints' church sits close to Babworth Hall accessed by a metalled footpath heading northeast from the main crossroads of the A620. The church is a creation of the late Perpendicular period the earliest date mentioned by Pevsner places the church in the 15th century. The northern arcades with its octagonal piers is typical of that period. The church follows the standard layout of nave, chancel and western tower and is augmented by those arcades and aisles. The nave and northern aisle is dated to the 16th century placing them towards the very end of the Perpendicular period. The church has also been much altered since completion, initial work commenced in 1784 as part of the prettification of the hall and grounds which date from a similar period. The Victorian changes then followed in both the 1850 and 1870s to reach today's church. The lane to the church leaves at a footpath sign opposite the B6420 and has some limited parking at its start, a walk of some 400 metres to the churchyard is needed to reach what is a rather tightly enclosed church with only limited angles available for photography."
