Winterton Church is renowned for its stately tower which soars to a height of 132'. The nave is exceptionally wide and spanned by a magnificent Victorian roof. Winterton has enjoyed a long-standing Anglo-Catholic tradition. The church has close connections with the sea: the crucifix that stands in Fisherman's Corner is carved from ship's timber, a trawler net forms its canopy; plaques record the valiant deeds of the village lifeboatmen, and a memorial records the sacrifice of Fr Clarence Porter, who died after saving a choirboy from drowning.
All Saints Churchyard contains 3 Commonwealth war graves from the First World War and 4 from the Second World War.
