Description of Archaeology and History
All Saints was built in 1880. Prior to 1880 there existed five local hamlets on the periphery of, and part of the parish of Hambledon. By the late 19th century these hamlets were merging into a new village of Denmead. The locals felt very strongly that they needed their own church away from Hambledon, and so in 1880 the church of All Saints was built, right in the centre of Denmead to serve and unite this new community. The church was funded by local landowners and dignatories who all subscribed towards the cost of the building. The land came from a local farmer who gave two and half acres for the church and vicarage to be built on.
Exterior Description
The church was built in Early English Gothic style with local red brick and flint from farmers fields. It was built due east/west and could comfortably seat 150 worshippers. The church hall was first built in 1966 in the church grounds as a separate building. In 1996 the older vestries, boiler room and north wall on the nave were demolished, and the nave, church hall and the car park were extended. The church was reorientated, with the north extension now taking a new main altar. The previous chancel became a chapel area. In 2003 a two-storey link building was built between church and hall, to include an additional meeting room upstairs, storage and office and utility space downstairs.
