St Mary’s dates back to the 11th century and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. It was extended in the 14th century with a tower with three bells that were made locally in Grasby. Outside on the south wall is a stone carving of a cat above one of the windows. 

The church is no longer used for worship and now looked after by The Churches Conservation Trust. It is on the edge of the village within the church graveyard.

The church was built in 1926/27 to replace the existing wooden church and be more central than the 11th century St Mary’s which is sited on the edge of the village. It was unfinished as money ran out! Beautiful coloured ceiling painted in railway colours.

Refreshments served over the weekend.
