"All Saints’ Church, Thrumpton is a Grade II* listed parish church in the Church of England in Thrumpton, Nottinghamshire.
It is part of an informal grouping of five churches that are known collectively as "The 453 Churches" as they straddle the A453.
The church dates from the 13th century and was restored in 1871 by George Edmund Street.
As Thrumpton was a chapelry of Ratcliffe until the 16th Century it is probable that it was administered by a curate. A change took place in the 17th century following the fall of the Powdrells and later the Pigotts moved to appoint a preacher. From 1950 Thrumpton ceased to have its own priest the living being shared with Barton and later Gotham."
