All Hallows Church has served as the parish church of Wellingborough since the 12^th century. It has a Norman south doorway, the tower is 13^th century supporting a later spire and the body of the church is mainly 14^th century.

Six remarkable misericord seats in the chancel point to a monastic influence, although there were no monks as such, but a number of lay clergy.

The church narrowly avoided being burnt down during the great fire of Wellingborough in 1738 when some of the lead on the roof melted.  As a result of the fire, 200 houses were destroyed and many of the 600 homeless people sheltered in the church.
