Churches (45) : All Saints, Leighton Buzzard

The Church of All Saints in Leighton Buzzard was founded in 1277CE and is in the Early English style, built on the site of an older church. The church has a tall spire that is nearly sixty metres high. A clerestory was added in the fifteenth century, there were also enlarged windows added and carved angels added to the exterior.

The church was restored in the mid-1880s, changes made to the interior during the Reformation were rolled back to something more akin to the original layout. The church was badly damaged by fire in 1985, the chancel and nave roofs being badly damaged as well as structural damage caused to the structure. Work on restoration, which included rectifying other faults with the structure discovered after the fire, was finally completed in 2016.
