History and features

The church has had a long association with Holme Pierrepont Hall.

The medieval church was largely re-built in 1666 by Henry Pierrepont, 1st Marquess of Dorchester. In 1878 Thomas Chambers Hine added the chancel.[1]

It is now part of the combined parish of All Hallows Church, Lady Bay.

The east window of 1913 is by James Powell and Sons.[citation needed]

The organ was built by Charles Lloyd and won a gold medal at the Birmingham Trades Exhibition in 1865.[citation needed]
