Wainfleet Bank, Lincolnshire

Site of All Saints' church

Uploader's Comments

Site of Wainfleet's medieval All Saints' church. A new central tower and bells were added c1718 but proved too heavy and the building became unsafe for worship so it was pulled down in 1820. Many of the headstones are post 1820 so burials presumably continued until later in the 19th century.
