All Saints' Church is the Church of England Parish Church for Matlock Bank and Matlock Moor. The church was built in 1884-1886 to serve the Victorian hydros of Matlock.
Due to lack of money only part of the original design was built in grand style with a more modest west end constructed in 1958.
All Saints seeks to serve and pray for people of Matlock Bank, working closely with the local church Infant and Junior schools.
Come and join with us in prayer and praise.
The Church is open Mon - Fri 9.00am - 2.00pm

Saint Giles is the ancient parish church of Matlock. Our church life is centred on the Sunday morning Sung Eucharist where, within the Anglican liturgy, we aim to combine the traditional and modern, the formal and relaxed, drawing worshippers of all ages. We aim to make the beauty and symbolism of our sacramental tradition available to a new generation. By our regular weekday celebrations of Holy Communion and our care for our much loved church building we provide a place where the Word of God may be heard in stillness and peace. Through our service in the local community, our social life and works of witness, we aim to be a channel by which men and women may seek God.
Please see our website www.stgilesmatlock.co.uk for the calendar and details of our normal services. Father Mark has a YouTube channel which he started during the Coronavirus lockdown. Some services are still uploaded, so do have a look.
