Threxton All Saints is a round-tower church at Threxton Hill, to the east of the village of Little Cressingham and west of Watton in Norfolk. It is a Grade I listed building.[1]
The village of Thexton has long since disappeared.
The church is medieval with a late 13th-century tower as well as a 14th-century octagonal font, and remnants of medieval stained glass in at least one window.[1] It retains some wall decorations which survived the Reformation, after being partitioned as part of a mausoleum: these were uncovered during the late 20th century.[1][2]
