Britain's What's On Event Guide
All Saints' Church, Banstead
Heritage Open Day: Charming Grade II* medieval church restored in 1861 by G. E. Street. Displays, stained-glass, monuments, historic books, plus an illustrated talk on the church's history and a bell-ringing demonstration. Churchyard walking tour in the afternoon. A church in Banstead was mentioned in Domesday book, but the present building seems to date from the late 12th century, with many changes since. With unusual nave arcades, some ancient stonework, interesting monuments and windows, it repays exploration. On 14th September there will be pictorial displays, a display of historic books and paintings, an illustrated talk about the church's history, and guides will be on hand to provide more information on the windows and memorials.
