ALL SAINTS' CHURCH

HOUGHTON REGIS

All Saints' Church Houghton Regis is a medieval church. There has been a church on this site since Saxon times:  it was mentioned in the Doomsday Book.  There are many interesting features to be seen in the building such as a recessed tomb, thought to be an effigy of Sir John Sewell and the Norman font pictured below and magnificent stained glass windows.
