All Saints Church is the parish chuch of Clayton with Frickley in the Parish of Bilham. It is unusually situated in the middle of a field between the villages of Clayton and Hooton Pagnell. The church is a small ancient structure with a Norman chancel arch, a 13thC tower, and a 12thC North aisle arcade. Frickley Colliery, where the brass band originated, is not really in Frickley. It is about two miles away in South Elmsall. The colliery was called Frickley because it was on land owned by Frickley Hall. Frickley was a hamlet that was reputedly destroyed due to the Plague. The pit closed in 1993.

This exquisitely wrought religious pendant, a masterful combination of worldliness and spirituality, would have been worn on a chain around its owner's neck. The central scene depicts Christ's dead body being taken down from the cross. Spare wood, delicate carving, and miniature scale heighten the pathos and focus attention on the fragility of life. The luxurious exterior, rendered in gold, stones, and inlaid enamel shows two popular saints, Saint Roch in his pilgrim dress-a staff and traveling cloak with a scallop shell-showing his wounded thigh, and Saint Sebastian, pierced by arrows. Protectors of the sick, the two saints were frequently invoked against the plague and represented together in port cities, where epidemics like the Black Death struck first and most ruthlessly. Their presence here suggests that the pendant was intended for a wealthy merchant or nobleman who lived near the sea, or traveled from port to port and needed special protection from disease.
