The All Saints Church in Hilton stands as a parish church within the Dorset countryside. Erected during the 15th century, the church underwent a meticulous restoration by the Victorians in 1890. Within its walls, a glimpse of medieval artistry is preserved – paintings depicting the ten Apostles. These compelling creations were initially integral components of a grand screen at Milton Abbey. However, in 1774, they were carefully detached for restoration purposes and eventually found a new home within the confines of this venerable church.
