All Saints' Church, Wing

Its masonry was largely built in the 8th to 11th centuries during the Anglo-Saxon period, making it one of the oldest surviving churches in England.

[2] The history of Wing dates back to the 7th or 8th century; the place name originally meant "The Settlement of Withun's People".

From the Anglo-Saxon period also comes the 10.6 metre high three-nave church with the exception of the outer wall of the southern aisle.

After the Norman conquest of England in 1066, oversight of the church was given to the Benedictine monastery of St. Nicholas in Angers, possibly in the hope that they would establish a priory.

In 1416, as a consequence of the Hundred Years War between England and France, the church passed to the Priory of St. Mary de Pre at St Albans.

The most striking completion of the 15th century was the construction of the massive bell tower, a landmark visible from a great distance.

The doorway in the southern entrance are decorated with coats of arms, lions and other symbols associated with the patron saints of the church.

The church is home to a series of 19th-century stained glass windows and a Walker organ dating from 1864, placed in 2002 on a new gallery in the base of the tower.
