LITTLE HORTON LANE BD5 (west side),
Church of All Saints

II*

1864, architect Thomas Healy, completed after his death by his sons T H and F Healy.
The finest and most richly detailed of the Bradford churches of this period. A
large church in a late C13 Decorated Gothic, bearing some resemblance to All Souls
Halifax of 1858 by Scott. Fine quality sandstone masonry. Tall nave, shallow aisles,
apsidal east end, transepts, north porch. The dominant feature (and a Bradford
landmark) is the fine tower abutting the south transept. Inset buttresses, four stages
with open twin light shafted bell stage; trefoil panelled parapet, crowned by corner
pinnacles. Octagonal lofty stone spire with elongated lucarnes. The buttressed
clerestory has spherical triangle windows, trefoil tracing. The graceful 3-light
apse windows have applied crocketed gables. Trefoil traceried rose to west end gable.
