Pontefract's Heritage in action

We at Pontefract All Saints' Church are pleased to invite you to come and visit our historic church and perhaps experience the Double Helix Staircase, see the bells, bellringing or even climb to the top of the tower. Opening Times

Precautions
Of especial interest is our unique Double Helix Spiral Staircase, difficult to describe, but allows two separate staircases wound around one central spine.

Free of charge, though the church is funded by voluntary contributions that we would be pleased that you could contribute to this magnificent building and its work.


English Heritage has been a major partner in restoring the church tower and preserving the ruins over the past 10 years.
