All Saints, Burnham Market
Open daily dawn to dusk.This is a small, simple church with early origins, although it was restored in the 19th century. It has no tower, but a bellcote on the west end of the nave. c.1190 inside. Look out for the grotesques on the roof corbels either side of the transitional Norman/Early English chancel arch. The pulpit is Georgian. All Saints Church serves the parish of Burnham Sutton cum Ulph. Edmund Nelson, father of Admiral Horatio Nelson, was the rector of Burnham Ulph and Burnham Sutton. Both churches were in need of work that their parishes could not afford. He applied for permission to pull down St Ethelbert's Church in Sutton in order to pay for the upkeep of Burnham Ulph. All Saints then became the church of the combined parishes.
