All Saints Church, Kingston upon Thames

All Saints Church is a medieval parish church in Kingston upon Thames with a cruciform layout and central tower. The exterior walls are flint with stone details, while inside, four bays create the main nave space that stretches toward the altar.

The church was the site of royal coronations in the 10th century, including that of Athelstan, who became the first ruler of all England. This period made it one of the most important places in the early English kingdom.

Inside, you can see a 14th-century wall painting and Victorian Gothic Revival stained glass windows that fill the space with color. These artworks reflect different periods in the church's life and shape how the interior feels when you step in.

You can find the church easily in central Kingston and visit during regular services or stop by the café for a drink. The location is walkable and well-connected by public transport if you need it.

Inside the church stands a memorial to César Picton, a man who escaped slavery to become a successful coal merchant. His story shows how this place witnessed different chapters of human history.
