All Saints is the parish church of Rotherfield Peppard, a village 6 miles north of Reading and 5 miles west of Henley on Thames.

The church dates from around 1300 but it is the intervention of the Spencer family of nearby Althorp that transformed the medieval building. Sir John Spencer (d1522) rebuilt the chancel and commenced the funerary chapel that lies adjacent to it.

The church is an ambitious and self-confident Gothic style building by G B Cox, erected between the wars and finished in 1934.

The church is set slightly above the meadows of the River Ebble.

The roots of Wade Street Church go back over 400 years with the current building opened in 1812. It is still standing today and the outside is more or less unchanged.

This tiny medieval church in a good hillside setting is entered through a farmyard.
