Chancel ceiling and screen, Holy Trinity Church, Raithby by Spilsby Grade II*listed

Raithby is mentioned in the Domesday book, and the church dates from the twelfth century onwards, and was rebuilt in 1873. The chancel was enlarged and the organ chamber was added in 1886, and the tower was renewed in 1895.

The church is built in greenstone with ashlar dressings, and lead roofs.

There is a western tower, nave, aisles, chancel, south porch, and vestry.
The tower is of three stages with a plain parapet, corner gargoyles and crocketted pinnacles. There are three bells.

The nave has three bay arcades with octagonal piers which are probably original Norman. The south aisle has one round and one square, probably from the restoration.
The chancel has a painted ceiling and rood screen. The reredos is probably by Temple Moore.
There is no organ anymore, the organ front is a dummy.

The Lych gate is from 1907.
