Rotherham - Minster of All Saints

Church St, Rotherham S60 1PD

URPoint Details

The Minster or All Saints' Church is built largely of neat-cut pieces of sandstone and low-pitch lead roofs dates from the 15th century and includes parts from earlier Saxon and Norman structures. Clayton and Bell working to George Gilbert Scott's designs constructed the east window. Stained glass makers and designers A. Gibbs, Camm Brothers, Heaton, Butler and Bayne and James Bell are known makers of the other windows. Gargoyles flank its clock on each face. It has a "recessed octagonal spire with crocketed arrises and pinnacled shafts rising from corner faces and a gilded weathervane." Architectural critics Pevsner and Simon Jenkins considered it "the best perpendicular style church in the country" and "the best work in the county", respectively.

It is a Grade I listed building in the highest category of architecture on 19 October 1951
