All Saints is one of the most ancient buildings still in use in t he country. Originally it was believed the earliest parts of the church dated from the Anglo-Saxon era but recent evidence points to the structure being 5th century Roman.
The main tower of All Saints at Lydd was constructed whilst Thomas Wosley was rector in or around 1500. He later became Cardinal Wosley, the famous historical figure from the Tudor era.
The Godfrey of Lydd family which the settlement is named after are commemorated throughout the church starting in 1430 and ending with the World War 2 memorial.
