All Saints, a small structure, with a square tower and three bells, contains an antique font with curiously carved figures of St. Paul and other apostles. The living is consolidated with St. Julian, and the joint benefices were returned in 1831 at £246 per annum. The Rev. T. Gurney is rector.
St. Andrew, next to St. Peter Mancroft, the finest church in the city—was rebuilt in 1506. The font is massive. In the north aisle is a costly monument, with effigies of Sir John and Lady Suckling, of whom there is an annual commemoration. The curacy is in the gift of the parishioners; the Rev. A. C. Copeman was elected in 1857. Out of the proceeds of the sale of the church ornaments at the Reformation, the parish paid £17 towards the repair of the gates and walls, and £20 to that of the Great Hospital—both injured in Kett’s rebellion.
St. Augustine, an unpretending edifice, with a tower and three bells. Rev. M. J. Rackham, rector.
St. Benedict, a small building with a round tower. The parishioners are the patrons; perpetual curate—Rev. W. Goodwin.
St. Clement, one of the most ancient fabrics in the city. In the churchyard is the tomb of the parents of Archbishop Parker, rebuilt over the original, in 1823, by Caius College; and also the “Leper’s tomb.” Rev. R. Rigg, rector.
St. Edmund, a small structure, founded in the time of the Conqueror, has a tower and one bell. Among the relics formerly preserved here, was a piece of the shirt of St. Edward the King and Martyr, kept in a box of crystal, and visited with great reverence. The Rev. G. B. Everett, rector.
St. Etheldred is a small fabric, with a short tower and one bell. In the burial-ground was formerly an anchorage, which continued till after the Reformation. Rev. J. Deacon incumbent.
St. George at Colegate is a large, handsome, gothic structure, rebuilt at different periods, and has a lofty tower. In the chancel is a fine altar tomb to Robert Jannis, a great benefactor to this church; and near it a beautiful mural monument to John Herring, Esq. The window over the communion table is of stained glass. In a vault is buried the elder Crome, the distinguished painter, who died in 1821. The Rev. A. W. Durdin, incumbent.
St. George at Tombland consists of a nave, chancel, and side aisles, and has a handsome square tower; it was erected by the parishioners in 1445. In the interior are spacious galleries, and many monumental inscriptions. Rev. K. Trimmer, incumbent.
St. Giles, founded in the reign of William the Conqueror, by Elwyn the priest, who gave it to the monks of Norwich, was rebuilt in the reign of Richard II., and is now one of the handsomest churches in the city. The tower, 120 feet high, contains a clock and eight bells, and is surrounded by a cupola and battlement. The chancel has been demolished since 1581, when the dean and chapter, to quit themselves of the expense of repairing it, gave all the materials to the parish, for “a stock to be put out for the encouragement of poor trades.” There are many curious old brasses, and several neat mural monuments. Rev. R. Sedgwick incumbent.
