Hundleby, St Mary

Hundleby, St Mary*

A small friendly church. This is the third church on this site. The first was listed in the Domesday Book. This was replaced in the 15th century. It was rebuilt in the 1850s, after falling into disrepair, using some of the original Spilsby sandstone. This is very soft and much loved by masonry bees! Come and see the stained glass windows and single manual organ. Harvest flowers and local history displays.

Binbrook, St Mary & St Gabriel

Binbrook, St Mary & St Gabriel*

Designed by James Fowler, the church was consecrated in August 1869 with a dual dedication, replacing the two village churches. It is in an Early English style with a slate roof and decorative ridge tiles. Built in ironstone with a broach spire, and a chancel with a polygonal apse. When RAF Binbrook closed a relationship was maintained with members of 460 SQRAAF. A memorial stained-glass window, commemorating squadrons serving at RAF Binbrook, was placed in the church. There is a Roll of Honour for 460 squadron available to see. A warm welcome awaits visitors to the ‘Cathedral in the Wolds’.

Belleau, St John the Baptist


Belleau, St John the Baptist*

There are numerous lovely comments by people who visit the church during the year and write in the visitor book. A comment that typifies this, written 18th April 2014 from Katy Davis, Coventry (aged 12 and a half): “It is one of my favourite churches. Whenever I go in I think how old and beautiful it is. It is very quiet and I really do like it. It truly takes my breath away.” Her mother added: “A nice place to pray and to calm your thoughts.”
