Church of All Saints, Church Lane, Ingham

Grade II Listed Parish Church rebuilt in 1792 replacing a larger medieval building that had fallen to ruin. It fell prey to Victorian Gothicising in 1896 and was restored again in 1931 when the west porch was constructed. The vestry had been added in 1901 and in December 1904 the chancel was restored at a cost of £700. The church was intended to seat 120. Ingham is mentioned in the Domesday Book having 30 households in 1086 but I see no mention of a church. The church register dates from 1567. In 1856 Henry Nevile is listed as patron of the benefice and Rev. Samuel King Webster, MA. as vicar since 1852. In 1888 the Rev. Henry Christopher Ricketts Macpherson BA. became vicar, replaced in 1894 by Rev. John Francis Edward Cudmore MA. who was the incumbent until at least 1919. The 15.25" bell is 1896 by John Taylor & Co.
