All Hallows Church, Clixby

All Hallows, Clixby The chancel of the 13th-century church of All Hallows was badly in need of repair until it was restored in 1889 and a west porch was added. In the floor is a 14th-century slab with an incised cross and chalice and the remains of a Lombardic inscription to a priest. Latin inscriptions in praise of the Virgin adorn the wooden ceiling. The carved octagonal font and pews with poppy heads have been rescued from other redundant churches. The altar has a triptych which includes the crucifixion, burial and resurrection of Christ.
