Brief description

2025-

"Parish church built 1816, possibly by Jeptha Pacey. Red brick in Flemish bond, sandstone and limestone, ashlar dressings. Slate roof with deeply overhanging eaves on paired moulded flat brackets.  The slate roof was completely replaced in 2020.

The church was built in the same year as the Battle of Waterloo (1816). When the Fens to the north of Boston were drained land was allocated to the various parishes on the fringe of the Fens and to the Church. Sir Joseph Banks argued that as the church was getting the land for free then the church itself should provide new churches and bear the cost centrally. The outcome was the Fen Churches Act which forced the Church Commissioners to provide churches at Wildmore, Langrick, Carrington, Frithville, Eastville and Midville."
