All Saints' church, Thornton-le-Moor, Lincs. All Saints' has early 12th century origins, a splendid south door and a rare Norman bellcote ... look carefully around the walls to spot some Norman corbels re-set with later additions. Early English lancet windows in the nave and curious clerestorey of tiny quatrefoils.
