Church of St Catharine

The Church of St Catharine is a church dating from the 14th and 15th centuries, with restorations in 1861, a partial chancel rebuild in 1857, and a north porch added in 1874, designed by C. Kirk of Sleaford. The building is constructed of ashlar, coursed squared stone, and rubble stone with stone dressings, and has plain tile roofs, partly with parapets. Stone coped gables feature finials, and the building has angle and diagonal buttresses with set-offs.

The church includes a west tower and spire, a nave, aisles, a chancel, and north and south porches. The three-stage west tower of the 14th century has a plinth, moulded bands, and angle buttresses with set-offs. It contains a small west door, a west window with Y tracery, a north 1-light window with a clock face, a south-west stairwell window, and four 2-light bell openings with Curvilinear tracery. The tower is topped with a head frieze, battlements, and a recessed spire with two tiers of lucarnes and a finial with a weathercock.

Inside, a quadruple chamfered nave arch has an inner section on polygonal responds. There is a 14th-century four-bay north arcade with double chamfered arches on quatrefoil piers, and a 15th-century four-bay south arcade featuring hollow and curved chamfered arches, some former to the ground and others on shafts. The church contains a 19th-century four-bay roof. The north aisle is from the 14th century but has later Perpendicular windows, including three 3-light windows and an east 4-light window, three containing stained glass from around 1900. A section of a mid-14th century sedilia remains. The chancel has two north windows with Y and Reticulated tracery, and two similar south windows, all containing 19th-century stained glass. An east window has restored Curvilinear tracery forming mouchettes and contains 19th-century stained glass. The chancel was partly rebuilt in 1857. A 19th-century five-bay roof has curved braces to collars.

The south aisle is from the 15th century, with an east window containing stained glass by Ward and Hughes of London, dated 1891, and three south windows by T. Curtis of the same firm in 1905. It also has a piscina and a double chamfered south doorway. A marble wall monument to Mrs. A. Bent, who died in 1677, features a cartouche with angel heads, where arms would typically be displayed. The church also has a 15th century south porch with an openwork gable, short wall posts, a tie beam, curved braces, and curved struts, under a Welsh slate roof. A round front onto 8 short shafts is also present.
