The present church of All Saint's in Sinnington is mostly a late Norman building, but numerous fragments of Anglo-Saxon and Norse sculpture work are preserved in the fabric of the church, clearly implying that its origins are much earlier. I believe that the door on the west end of the nave it probably late Saxon, which implies that part of the building is probably pre-Norman. Its location, situated on top of a prominent hill overlooking the village of Sinnington may further suggest its early origins.
