History

The church dates from 1793 and was built in the Classical style for Henry Noel, 6th Earl of Gainsborough.

It replaced a church dedicated to St Wilfred which was located to the north of Kinoulton Lane. Although the building was demolished, the churchyard remains and contains a group of 34 headstones dating from the 1700s.

It is in a joint parish with two other churches of the same dedication:

  • St Luke's Church, Broughton Sulney
  • St Luke's Church, Hickling
  • Organ

    The church has a one manual pipe organ fitted with an automatic barrel mechanism. It was installed in the church in 1947 by Cedric Arnold. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.
