St Peter
Gunby, Lincolnshire
In a leafy glade in the grounds of Gunby Hall, this delightful medieval church contains many memorials to the Massingberd family, once owners of Gunby.
It is a large brick building, rebuilt in 1797 though it still retains some of the medieval chalk base from original building.
One of the two fonts has a 14th century bowl. This font was found in a field in 1912 and it is believed to have come from an earlier church on the site. St Martin’s is home to a lovely organ which came from the Anglican Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham. The chalice, dated 1718, is by Thomas Evesdon.
