All Saints Church, Ballidon, Grade II listed church in Ballidon, England
The limestone church features a grit-stone exterior, stone slate roof, two-cell structure with a nave, chancel, south porch, and north vestry.
Built in the 12th century, the church underwent multiple reconstructions, with substantial modifications made in 1822 and a major rebuilding in 1882.
The octagonal font contains intricate carvings of fish, bears, and abstract designs, some mysteriously positioned upside-down, reflecting medieval artistic practices.
Located in Ashbourne, Derbyshire DE6 1QX, the church stands in an open field, accessed through a narrow opening in the farmyard wall.
The church contains a hidden door in the oak reredos, revealing a miniature Romanesque arch decorated with painted zigzag patterns around a cross.
