A view of the Grade 1-listed All Saints' Church. Apparently it has not been used for regular worship since 1973 and its ownership and management were vested in The Churches Conservation Trust in 1981. The church was built between 1863-70, in English Gothic Revival style, the architect being George Frederick Bodley. The tower and spire, modelled on St Oswald's Church, Ashbourne, Derbyshire, were added between 1869-71. The church’s overall height is said to be 175 feet (53 m), making it the city’s third tallest building. The building is used during term time by Westcott House, an adjacent theological college (one of its student "Halls" appear on the left), and in addition, it's available as a function venue too. Each Monday-Saturday it is open to visitors, many of whom come to see its Arts and Crafts style fittings. Jesus Lane and Jesus College are situated ahead.
