All Saints
Ulceby, Lincolnshire
A little brick built Anglican church standing by the side of a quiet country lane.
Recorded in the Domesday Book, the earliest part of St Nicholas church has been standing since 1000AD. Since then, the church has undergone a series of changes that have been faithfully recorded in a book published by the congregation (and available for £6).
The church mainly dates from the 13th, 14th and 15th centuries. Unusually for this area the tower is topped by a needle spire. A stained glass window above the children’s altar is believed to have been designed by Edward Burne-Jones who was the glass designer for William Morris.
It has been the happy recipient of a National Lottery Heritage Fund grant with which a new roof, heating system, improved lighting, a toilet and a servery were provided. The church is now a community hub, open every day and ambitious to maintain it's weekly service. Urgent repairs to the tower are now underway and we have plans to get the 6 bells ringing again.
