Set in the countryside between Huntington and New Earswick. All Saints Church is on Church Lane, off the Old Village in Huntington. There has been a church on this site for the last 900 years. The exact date of the first one is unknown but a church was in existence in late Saxon times. A second church was built in the 12th or 13th Century and this was believed to have been reconstructed in the 15th century. Parts of the Norman building remain in the church today.
