All Saints' Church, Ryde, Anglican church in Ryde, United Kingdom.
All Saints' Church is a stone church building with a distinctive spire that can be seen from many locations across the Isle of Wight and parts of the mainland coast. The structure combines solid walls with a prominent tall spire that shapes the town's skyline.
Renowned architect George Gilbert Scott designed this church, which was built between 1868 and 1872, with the spire completed in 1881. The building emerged during the Victorian era and is now registered as a Grade II* listed structure.
The church serves as a gathering place for the local community, hosting both conventional and contemporary worship services. People of different ages come together here to participate in prayer and music.
Visitors can enter through the main entrance, which is accessible for wheelchair users. The interior can be explored regularly, sometimes with guided visits that share details about the design and furnishings.
The pulpit was crafted from Derbyshire alabaster mounted on marble columns and won first prize at the Great Exhibition of 1851. This finely made piece stands as quiet testimony to 19th-century craftsmanship.
