Gabled north porch with wave-moulded outer arch on three orders of columns at All Saints' church, Gilmorton, added in 1897 and bears the inscription
V R I
1897


"The church at Gilmorton has been heavily restored by the Victorians. The church consists of a west tower and spire, north & south aisles, chancel and vestry. There are some early 14th century fabric in the three bay arcades but then we must go to the Perpendicular tower (15th century) to see the next oldest part of the building. The rest of the church dates from rebuilds and renovation work carried out between 1860 and 1909.

In 1897 the north porch was added."
