The Greetham Web Pages GREETHAM VILLAGE CHURCH#1.
All Saints Parish church is an Anglican church situated on what is now the northen end of the village of Greetham. The Domesday book entry mentions a church but the foundations of the present building date from the 12th Century. Over the years the church has been added to and, at other times, parts demolished. The present material making up the nave dates from the 15th Century. The present building was restored in 1903. Currently the church has no imcumbant priest and holds only 5 services or so a year.
1709 church The earliest drawing I have of the church is this one by C. Noltis drawn in 1709.
Church SW
It is interesting to compare the above drawing with these modern views. However the building work inbetween makes comparisons difficult.
This is the South Eastern view. . .
Church NE
. . . and this the North Western view. There is evidence of a previous western tower but it certainly didn't exist in 1709.
