TF5061 : All Saints, Croft
near to Croft, Lincolnshire, Great Britain

All Saints, Croft
The greenstone church, with porch, was restored in the 17th and 19th century, but is mainly Decorated and Perpendicular. It has a clerestoried and battlemented nave with north and south aisles and a battlemented tower carrying six bells. "God save the King, 1633", is described in raised letters on the south door, which is panelled, with wicket.
Within, there is a Jacobean pulpit of 1615, that is in memory of Agnes Worship and bears the name of her husband, Dr William Worship; a chancel screen, carved with birds and other creatures, which dates back to the 15th century and a very early brass half-effigy of a knight in chainmail and tunic.
Unfortunately, the church wasn't open for business. The mission statement - "To enable people to be part of the worshipping community and to know God", wasn't in force, but the pub was open.
