The church is noted for its of medieval glass, I particulary liked the pane in the lower right corner of The Nine Orders of Angels window
(c. 1410) which includes a monk wearing spectacles.
Ringing takes place from the ground floor. If you get the chance take a look at the steep, narrow staircase that leads up to the bells.

My first visit was on Saturday 10th October 2015 as the fourth tower [1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th] of the Offenham ringers outing.
I started by ringing up bell #6 followed by ringing the tenor for Rounds & Call Changes. Next I rang bell #5 for a plain course of Stedman Triples. We then rang on just the back 6 when I rang #3 (bell #5) for a touch of Grandsire Doubles followed by #4 (bell #6) for a touch of Plain Bob Minor. I finished our visit by ringing down bell #7.
The Bells
The tower has a ring of 8 bells with a tenor weighing 7-2-2 in A. Dove's Guide includes details of the bells at All Saints and more information is provided by the Yorkshire Association of Change Ringers.
