Why it's Wildland
3.3A Grade II* listed Wandsworth church whose fabric spans several centuries: its west tower began in 1630, while later rebuilding and additions shaped the building seen today.
All Saints is a worthwhile local heritage stop for the visible layers of Wandsworth’s history, from its 17th-century tower to its 18th-century rebuilding and 1900 chancel. It is an urban church visit rather than a nature escape.

Verified history
All Saints stands on the site of an earlier church dating to the 13th century and is Grade II* listed. The lower parts of its west tower were built in 1630; an upper storey was added in 1841, when a peal of eight bells was installed. The north aisle dates to 1724, and the remainder of the church was rebuilt by William Jupp in 1778–80. A new chancel, designed by E. W. Mountford, was added in 1900.
