My second visit to a redundant church this year, this time with my 76 year old mother in law. Love this place and the keyholders are a great couple who turned out to know some of my mother in laws relatives that are buried in the churchyard. Small world


A 14th century country church with Noman origins, Theddlethorpe has sometimes been called the Cathedral of the Marsh, a testament to its impressive length and spaciousness, as wel as the quality of the exterior carving detail.
The church was constructed around 1380, and the exterior presents a rather peculiar appearance, mixing local greensand stone with pale limestone and red-brick to create a rather motley appearance. The timber roof is especially fine, as is the carved wooden rood screen.

Enjoy the photos

That's a beautiful church. Slightly picture heavy but its worth it. I like the detailed craftmanship on the woodwork. The wooden items and the carving must have been added at a later stage. Thanks.
 
Nice to see that the weather and vandal's have been kept out - like the pictures thank you
