The Norman church, a chalk walled and thatched roof structure, built by Herbert, was converted to a Chapelry and given to the Gilbertine Priory of St Catherine by Gilbert of Rigsby in 1195 in whose hands it remained for 300 years. The inner portions of the doorway and the arch between the Nave and Vestry are remnants of the original Norman building. The Registrar dates from 1686
The present building, designed by James Fowler of Louth was erected in 1863 at a cost of £685. All the labourers in the parish contributed a week's wages. The small tower contains one bell but this is too fragile to be rung
Services take place on the first Sunday of the month only at 11am. With a typical congregration size of 8-12 and everyone is welcome. In late summer a church picnic is held on straw bales in the ajoining paddock. This is usually well attended and is always an enjoyable event.
