All Saints' Church is a 13th-century pilgrims'[1] Grade I listed church[2] in Boughton Aluph near Ashford, Kent.[3] It is part of the Church of England.[1][4]
Built in the thirteenth century by a man named Adulphus to replace a Saxon church, it was enlarged in the 14th century by Sir Thomas Aldon, one of Edward III of England's courtiers.[3] The building was restored in 1878.[2] On 27 November 1957, the church was placed on the Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest, as a Grade I building.[2] In the late 1990s and early 2000s, it was extensively renovated, including the cleansing and restoration of the windows in 2009.[1] The church continues to be an active centre for worship, and is part of the United Wye Benefice. Every June, the building is used to host the Stour Music Festival.
