Date:1857

Description:All Saints' church was rebuilt by Thomas Johnson of Lichfield in 1846, using part of the original tower. The work was paid for by the Bagots of Blithfield. Some of the medieval church survived the rebuilding, including the 14th century font and stained glass in the chancel.

This is one of a series of watercolours of all the churches in Lichfield Diocese in Staffordshire, painted by Miss Theodosia Hinckes and Mrs Rebecca Moore (wife of the Archdeacon of Stafford for Lichfield Cathedral) for Lichfield Cathedral between 1857 and 1861.
