History edit

The first Wesleyan Methodist chapel in the village was built in 1809, but this was replaced by a new chapel in Saint Andrew's Street in 1835.

The building of the current church started in 1904 to designs by Nottingham-based architect Albert Edward Lambert.[1] It cost around £2,250 (equivalent to £257,907 in 2021).[2] and was constructed by T. Barlow and Co. of Nottingham.

Current edit

The church is part of the Sleaford circuit and holds a service at 10:30 every Sunday. There are many social activities which use the church.[3]
