NHER 9707 (Building record) - All Saints' Church, Keswick

March 1979. Visit.
Demolished in 1597. Round tower of uncertain date, tall and narrow, containing some bricks that might be Roman but could also be medieval; one tile roofs a putlog hole. West side of tower has been left rough inside the later nave, but the top of the tower arch has been rebuilt in brick, and the belfry stage is also new; this is of 1893 according to (S1). Ruins of east wall of chancel with hole of a pointed window, which looks as if it may have been knocked through to the ground, and blocked up again. Possible mark of piscina on stump of south wall. Most of north wall remains with no windows: remains also of dividing wall north of chancel arch, showing arch was narrow, and short stub of nave north wall, containing some bricks claimed Roman by J.V.S. Megaw and Mr Colquhon (Ordnance Survey), but apparently medieval. Present nave, apse and vestry said by (S2) to have been built as a mortuary chapel in 1894, but by (S1) to be of 1898, stands between tower and ruins.
