All Saints Church, Bolton. Much of the frabric is Norman - the east
doorway being a fine example of that period. The frabric was restored
and the chancel lengthened in the 13thc,, and considerable repairs
were carried out in c. 1848. (2)
This church, with its steeply-pointed stone tunnel-vault is "one of
the architectural sensations of Cumberland". (3)
