A beautiful 11th Century church nestled in the heart of Bawtry. Absolutely stunning stained glass windows throughout and if you look.closely you'll notice the difference in the pillars. The circular pillars are from the original building whereas the hexagonal pillars are from where the church was modernised or added to some time later.
