All Saints’ Church, Kirk Hallam is a Grade I listed[1] parish church in the Church of England in Kirk Hallam, Derbyshire.[2]

History


The church dates from the 14th century. The nave was restored by George Edmund Street when new buttresses were added, a new porch constructed, the south wall was underpinned, the pews removed and replaced with open seating, the tower arch opened up, and the floor paved with Minton tiles. The church reopened on 21 August 1859.[3]

Organ

The pipe organ was built by Charles Lloyd and Co and dedicated by the Bishop of Derby on 7 May 1904.[4] A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[5]
