All Saints Church, Normanton, Grade II* listed church in Normanton, England.

The church features a three-bay chancel, four-bay nave with aisles, clerestory, and a 15th-century tower built from coursed dressed sandstone blocks.

The current structure dates back to 1256 when Roger Le Peytevin granted it to the Hospital of St. John of the Knights Hospitallers at Newland.

The church contains the Freeston Tomb, marking the burial site of Sir John Freeston who established an almshouse and grammar school for the community.

Regular services take place in the reordered interior, which returned to an east-facing orientation following renovations completed in 2019.

A medieval altar slab with five incised crosses, discovered under the sanctuary floor in 1906, now resides in the Lady Chapel for weekly Eucharist services.
