All Saints

Sixhills CP

Lincolnshire

Late C13, 1869 and 1875 restoration and rebuilding by James Fowler of Louth in the Early English style.

Architectural Features

The 3 stage tower in squared rubble has presumably medieval fabric, but all openings and dressings are from 1875.

The gabled south porch has a deeply moulded C19 outer doorway with floriate stops and carving to the top of the chamfered sides and single pointed side lights.

In the north wall of the nave is preserved the late C13 3 bay arcade to a now vanished north aisle with double chamfered arches, octagonal columns and capitals.

Nave and apsidal sanctuary are undivided but the sanctuary is marked by a large stone corbel in the form of shield bearing angel to either side of nave, each supporting 4 annular wooden shafts with carved leaf capitals which bear a pointed timber box arch having pierced decoration of alternate lancet and quatrefoil panels.

Fittings are all C19 including stone pulpit with blank arcaded panels, dogtooth decoration and integral lectern.

Circular C19 chalice shaped font, decorated with 4 roundels depicting scenes from the life of Christ.

In the east window is a small panel of German C17 stained glass.
