Read letters to Bill the Verger from a local school

Historic All Saints Church in the heart of Mumbles welcomes school and group parties.  There is so much to see and appreciate from ancient Roman pavement remains in the south aisle to the Norman Tower (check out the Flag flying days) and medieval Lady Chapel, the Font, described here, which dates from 1251AD (seen above); the modern stained glass windows - one in memory of the 1947 Mumbles Lifeboat disaster and the magnificent Rood Screen carved from Welsh oak in memory of the Mumbles men who lost their lives in the Great War and the spectacular Reredos behind
the High Altar to the east of the Church. 

More details can be found on the Tour of All Saints pages.

Clown Roly Bain visited All Saints Church during May 2010 and entertained 130 local primary school children with his unique blend of Christian stories told with the aid of some amazing clowning tricks. More photos on the gallery page

"We went to All Saints Church on Tuesday. We met Bill. I am writing, so is Josie. Thank you Bill. I had a good time. Thank you very, very much"
