A little history Whipton Church 
Known as All Saint's Parish Church, it was a chapel of ease to St Michael's, Heavitree. Constructed in the Gothic style out of stone, it had a chancel, nave, south transept, south porch and a small western turret with a single open bell. Lord Poltimore donated the ¾ acre of land. The building was funded with £800 raised by the churchwardens and £400 left as a legacy. Designed by Mr Ashworth, it was consecrated on 23 June 1862. The building was made redundant in the 1970s and is now used by the Whipton Community Association. The church yard has some interesting graves including that of Lt. F H Cheshire who won the VC at the charge of the Light Brigade in the Crimean War.
