This ironstone church dates back to the 11th century and was restored in 1805 and 1874. There is a western tower, nave, chancel, vestry, and south porch. The west tower is Saxo-Norman, the ironstone being very weathered. The top part is 15th century, having a plain parapet with 19th-century pinnacles. There are three bells. The tower was restored in 2011. The tower arch is tall and was restored in the 1500s. The Royal coat of arms above it dates from post 1837, and is made of cast metal. Most of the rest of the church dates from the 1874 rebuilding with some mediaeval masonry retained. On the outside of the chancel wall is an early 12th century panel with various geometrical decorations. The fittings are all 19th-century, and the floor is paved with Minton tiles. The small organ is by Cuthbert of Hull from 1877. There are several stained-glass windows, dating from after the time of the 1874 rebuild.

The valley of Nettleton Beck, Lincolnshire Wolds. After overcast and drizzly days at the start of our walk from the northern end of the Viking Way, I am now beginning to fully enjoy the beauty of the Wolds.

Chalk feature. This could be just a part of the natural landscape or maybe some kind of old quarry.

Concreted lane (1). From the same location as 430110, and the twisty, hilly nature of this lane is shown. Unfortunately the Viking Way climbs up this lane for a little way before diverging right.

The oldest part of the church dates back to the 13th century. The church was enlarged during the 15th century and later had restoration work done under Sir George Gilbert Scott in the 19th century. The arcade – most of the windows and the south porch date from this time. The octagonal font is 13th/15 century. The wrought iron top is modern. The church has north and south aisles and a north chapel. The late 13th C 3 bay arcades have double chamfered arches with octagonal piers and moulded capitals. On the voussoirs are extensive traces of red painted foliage. The lower part of the tower is 13th century and retains the original narrow tower arch and small lancet window in the west wall. The upper tower was added in the 14th century together with the window. The reredos dated 1860 is mosaic and marble and displays Italian workmanship.
