The current Grade II Listed grey stone church, dedicated to St John the Baptist, was designed during the Georgian era by Thomas Berry of Gainsborough between 1794-95 after the previous 14th century church fell.

As you round the corner you are in for a great surprise, over the south porch is a lovely, if weathered, panel of Our Lady of Pity, one of the most popular images in late medieval English iconography.

Mentioned in the Doomsday Book in 1086, St Edward the Confessor is situated on land formerly owned by Kolsveinn, Lord of Brattleby and tenant in chief of more than fifty manors in the county at that time.

Built in 1853 is currently housing three exhibitions; the Inclesmoor Embroidery Map, the forgotten village of Amcotts at Flixborough and the award winning Amcotts Butterfly Garden.

Very much the village church and open daily, St John’s strives to be at the heart of the whole rural community it serves.

Founded as a monastic community in 654AD, the cathedral became one of the most significant medieval abbeys in the country, the burial place of two queens and the scene of Civil War upheavals.

Built around 1850 by architect Joseph Hansom with apse chancel in an unfussy and restrained Victorian gothic style.

This church consists of a western tower, nave, apsidal chancel, south porch and vestry, the inside walls are of red brick with black brick horizontal bands.

A very warm welcome to our beautiful medieval church, which lies tucked away down a quiet lane on the south side of the village.

This Grade I church has a Norman chancel arch and Norman font.
