The parish of Calbourne was granted to the Manor of St Swithin at Winchester in 827, and in turn the Bishop of Winchester. It moved to the new Diocese of Portsmouth in 1927. Calbourne and its church was mentioned in the Domesday Book. The Domesday church was pulled down (with some minor retentions) and replaced in 1240 to 1250. The first rector was Malger, Archbishop of Rouen and uncle of William I the conqueror.

The Anglican grade II* listed church of All Saints, Calbourne as it stands now, still retains the original 13th century chancel and south aisle chapel (Westover). It is built from Isle of Wight stone rubble with some flint work and tiled roofs. The two eastern windows, particularly the one in the chancel, are fine examples of early English architecture, consisiting of two large lancets with a trefoiled circle above one and a quatrefoil above the other.
The lower part of the tower is also C13 with the upper part of the tower rebuilt in 1752, after remaining in ruins from a fire in 1683. A North Chapel and Crypt was added in 1842 and built by A F Livesay on the instructions of his patron, Sir Richard Simeon of Swainston Manor, the former Bishop’s Palace. The North Porch was also constructed at this time.
