All Saints Church, Rackenford
Rackenford Church holds weekly services including the popular monthly family service involving children's activities. All festive occassions are well supported by the local community.
The earliest reference to this church is 1239 although the present building is mainly 15th-century; however, the arch for the south door is 14th-century.
Another feature to admire is the great west arch. The church is a small and ancient building of stone in the Early English style, consisting of a chancel, nave of four bays, aisle, south porch and an embattled tower containing six bells; the font is of the reign of Henry II.
