[229] St Margaret, Haceby

St Margaret, Haceby, Lincolnshire.

Churches Conservation Trust.

Grade l listed.

 

Nothing remains of Haceby Village save the old church of St Margaret and some grass-covered mounds.

 

Built after the Norman Conquest, the church has been altered and added to many times over the centuries though a rare Norman arch inside the church survives. Above the arch, a comparatively modern wallpainting of the Royal Arms of Queen Anne overlay a Medieval wallpainting that vividly depicts sinners being pitchforked into the flames of hell in a Doom.
