Cemeteries This Church has (or had) a graveyard. Note: any church within an urban environment may have had its graveyard closed after the Burial Act of 1853. Any new church built after that is unlikely to have had a graveyard at all. Church History This Place of Worship was founded before 1558, and we understand it is still open. Remnants of "old England" still survive in Findern today, in the shape of a Village Green ("The Green"), and a Common ("Common Piece Lane", yet it is just a short distance from the busy A38 Burton on Trent to Derby Road. All Saints Church is set back from The Green, and dates from 1863. It replaced an earlier building of the same dedication. Remains of the earlier chapel include two bells, dated 1704 and 1841, an incised slab to Isabella de Fynderne d.1444, the wife of Sir Henry de Bothe [Booth], and the font dated 1666. The church plate, which dates from 1564-5 is said to be the earliest in the county. The remains of the tympanum over the old north doorway have been built into the north aisle. The churchyard is probably now closed as there is a separate Cemetery a short distance away in Common Piece Lane. The register dates from 1558 but "the ink is much faded and the writing in many places illegible; down to 1660 it is a copy of an older book" [Source: Kelly's Directory of Derbyshire (1932)] Denomination Now or formerly Church of England. If more than one congregation has worshipped here, or its congregation has united with others, in most cases this will record its original dedication.

Search Tips:

You can specify either a Place, or OS Grid Reference to search for. When you specify a Place, only entries for that place will be returned, with Places of Worship listed in alphabetical order. If you specify a Grid Reference, Places of Worship in the immediate vicinity will be listed, in order of distance from the Grid Reference supplied. The default is to list 10, but you can specify How Many you want to see, up to a maximum of 100.

You can further refine your search by supplying other search terms.

• You can specify entries with ('Yes') or without ('No') photographs.
• You can specify a church or chapel's Dedication, to restrict entries to those containing the term you supply as a dedication. So for instance, 'John' would return 'St John', 'St Mary and St John', 'St John the Divine' &c.
• You can specify a Street address, and likewise 'George' will return George Place, St George's Street, George and Dragon, &c.
• You can restrict the search to classes of Denomination. The exact denomination is always shown in the results, although the search is for broad types. Thus you can search for 'Methodist', but not 'Wesleyan Methodist' or 'Primitive Methodist'. 'Multi-denominational' includes Ecumenical Partnerships, and 'Miscellaneous' means anything not covered by other broad classes.
