About Us
Welcome to the church of All Saints, Ixworth Thorpe, in the parish of Ixworth with Ixworth Thorpe.
This tiny church stands on the edge of the hamlet of Ixworth Thorpe, a little back from the Ixworth to Thetford road. It has rendered walls and a thatched roof, wth a brick and weatherboard bellcote and a surprisingly impressive 15th-century brick porch.
The church dates back to Norman times; its white-washed interior is simple but remarkable for its glorious 15th-century carved bench ends, which include a mermaid, a harvester and various real and mythical animals, and are similar to those at Honington.
Evensong (according to the Book of Common Prayer) is held here on the fourth Sunday of each month at 6pm.

We would welcome more visitors and worshippers to this tiny thatched church where you will find an oasis of peace and silence. Those who would like to visit should contact us to arrange it.
