# All Saints, Runhall

All Saints is a Grade II* parish church on Church Road, Runhall, Norfolk, in the Diocese of Norwich and the parish of Runhall with Coston. Historic England records a twelfth-, thirteenth- and late medieval flint church with a round western tower, aisleless nave and south porch; the chancel has been destroyed.

## Overview

The listing describes flint with ashlar dressings and some brick, under a slate roof. The late medieval round tower has brick dressings, twin lancet bell-openings and a parapet. The nave has two three-light rectangular-headed Perpendicular windows and two late thirteenth-century Y-traceried windows, one (south) rebuilt in brick. A reused twelfth-century keeled billet moulding forms a hood-mould to the other Y-traceried window. A fine late thirteenth-century blocked north door has filleted bowtells and hollow rolls.

The listing highlights twelfth-century ironwork of exceptional rarity on the tower door, with serpentine and interlace motifs. Fragments of twelfth-century chevron moulding are embedded in the tower wall. A thirteenth-century ogee-headed niche on the east wall retains medieval paint. The fourteenth-century octagonal font has quatrefoils. Norfolk Heritage Explorer notes that the chancel was destroyed by fire and blocked off, with wall remnants still visible at the east end.
