# St Peter, Kingerby

St Peter’s is a Grade I redundant church in isolated fields at Kingerby, Lincolnshire, now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust, opposite the grounds of Kingerby Hall.

## Overview

Historic England records fabric of the early eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, with early seventeenth-century work and minor nineteenth-century repairs. The church is squared and coursed ironstone rubble with some brick patching, under lead and pantile roofs: a three-stage tapering thirteenth-century west tower, nave with clerestory, south aisle and porch, and a lower chancel. The earlier Anglo-Saxon nave roof pitch is visible on the east face of the tower, cut by a thirteenth-century string course. A deeply splayed circular opening high in the west wall of the nave is recorded as the original early eleventh-century west light.

The blocked north arcade marks a lost aisle. Inside, an early seventeenth-century king-post nave roof has four arch-braced moulded tie beams. Fourteenth-century stained glass in the east aisle window includes the Crucifixion, St Catherine and St Cecilia. Monuments include a mid-thirteenth-century cross-legged knight and a late fourteenth-century knight on tomb chests, and a coffin-shaped slab in the chancel said to commemorate a member of the Disney family. An alms box of 1639 is inscribed “This is Gods Treasury.” The church is open daily, dawn to dusk.
