All Saints Church, Church Lane, Frostenden Grade I Listed medieval church restored about 1890 according to the listing. A photograph by Henry Munro Cautley FSA ARIBA labelled 'Restored and re-opened 9th April 1936' shows the church with no roof and roof trusses partially replaced. The tower is either Norman or even Saxon and one of Suffolk's oldest round towers. All Saints was built in the 13th century and the main body of the church consists of  nave, chancel, and 15th century south aisle. The nave door and lean-to aisle roof are largely original. The parish registers date from 1538. The Domesday Book of 1086 shows that sea-going ships tied up here, indicating that the now dried-up river bed behind the church was once navigable. There were also two churches here.
