St Peter's Church, Normanby-by-Spital

Light and airy village church

Close to Ermine Street, a vital artery in Roman Britain, this small Medieval village church has attractive 12th-century arcade with wonderful carvings and a sturdy and handsome tower.

Foundations of a former apse are visible and further research may show that the church is of earlier date than the 12th-century.

18th-century additions include interesting Benefaction Boards.

The church stands in a pretty churchyard surrounded by the village houses.
