In my personal experience, we encounter a unique dual patronage at this ancient and venerable church. Firstly, it is dedicated to the Mother of God, or MARY, but the parish community has not only entrusted itself to her personal intercession before God's throne, but has also made a far-reaching addition: By adding the two short words "All Saints" to the Marian patronage, the people of this parish have also entrusted themselves to the comprehensive protection of the complete heaven of saints.

William Morris called this church "the most beautiful country church in all of England". Aside from the 15th century timber-framed tower and spire, most of the church was built between 1270 and 1290 and has remained largely unchanged.

Surrounded by stunning countryside a few miles from Dunsfold village, St Mary & All Saints is a beautiful 13th-century church. Famous textile designer William Morris once described the church as "the most beautiful country church in all England." It is thought that the church has some of the oldest pews in England, and there is also an ancient 1500-year-old Yew Tree in the garden. Look out for the intricate tapestry showing "Life in Dunsfold" sewn by 85 parishioners, it's hanging on the west wall.
