St.Peter's church South view of St.Peter's church, usually obscured by an overgrown churchyard.

In 1866 the Lincoln Diocesan Architectural Society described the old church as "miserable in character", prompting Rev.Robert William Otter (Rector of Aisthorpe 1850-1875) to commission and pay for a new St.Peter's church. The church was rebuilt by architect Thomas Chambers Hine of Nottingham in a neo-Early English style and completed by 1868.
St.Peter's church was grade II listed in November 1966. It has been closed for many years due to structural safety concerns.
