All Saints Church, Beeby

All Saints Church is a parish church in Beeby with a distinctive tower built from orange ironstone and white ashlar stone. The chancel is constructed of brick with red sandstone details, creating a characteristic mix of medieval materials and design.

Construction of this church began in the early 1300s as a simple parish building. The tower was added about a century later during the 1400s and became the structure's most recognizable feature.

Inside you can see carved corbels and a 13th-century font with floral designs, while the box pews from the late 1700s show how different sections of the community once sat separately during services.

The church sits along Croxton Road and is accessible during daylight hours, though parking spaces are limited in the area. Arriving early or cycling there can help you avoid parking difficulties.

The tower contains three historic bells, with one cast around 1400 that demonstrates medieval bell-making techniques. These bells have rung for centuries, marking time in this small village community.
