All Saints' Church, Sutton-on-Trent is a Grade I listed parish church in the Church of England in Sutton-on-Trent.

History

A Saxon church was listed in the Domesday Book of 1086, but was replaced by the current Norman building. The tower contains Saxon foundations and Norman herringbone work; the upper stages are 13th and early 14th century respectively. The Mering Chapel was built around 1525.

The current, Grade I listed church is dedicated to All Saints. It can hold 350 persons and was repaired in 1848 and again in 1902-03. All the grave stones in the churchyard were moved to the edges some years ago and the graveyard was levelled.

The tower was rebuilt in the 1902-1903 renovations, and restored in 1932 by William Weir. The tower was further restored in 1956-1968.

It is part of a joint parish with:

Organ
