Summary

[edit]
Description

Grade I listed. 13th Century onwards, restored in 1893 by Hodgson Fowler, and also in 1962. Its unique tower has nine pinnacles, with an unusual central one. There is a fine view from the top, both Lincoln cathedral and Southwell minster can be seen. The tower was used as an observation post in the Civil war. On the first floor is a chamber with a 15th C. fireplace. In 17th C. the room was used as a dovecote. Pigeons provided fresh meat in winter, and a change from eating salted food from Michaelmas to Easter.

The church contains an Oak Chest said to be from 1250.
