All Saints' Church, Kedleston, is a redundant Anglican Church located 4 miles north-west of Derby in Derbyshire, England. It is all that remains of the medieval village of Kedleston, which was demolished in 1759 by Nathaniel Curzon to make way for the adjacent Kedleston Hall, [1] a country house in Derbyshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building.[2] Kedleston Hall is owned by the National Trust,[3] and the church is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.[4] Kedleston Hall has been occupied by the Curzon family for over 700 years.[5]
