All Saints’ Church or Stand Church is an active Anglican parish church in Stand, Whitefield, Greater Manchester, England.
Built between 1821 and 1826, All Saints’ Church is one of the many Commissioners’ churches built to celebrate the defeat of Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815.
The land on which the church and vicarage were built was given to the parish by the Earl of Derby.
The architect Sir John Soane was invited to design the church to accommodate about 1,800 people, and to cost no more than £12,000. He declined and passed the commission to Charles Barry.
The foundation stone was laid on 3 August 1821, and the church was consecrated by the Bishop of Chester on 8 September 1826.
