St Mary's Church and the war memorial on Main Street. Little apparently remains of the medieval building. The chancel of this church was built in 1858 by Charles Bailey of Newark on Trent, whilst the rest of the church was built by Joseph Goddard and Alfred Henry Paget of Leicester between 1879-80. Little information survives about the rebuilding of the tower with its unusual saddleback roof although Radcliffe tradition has it that its German-French style arose from influence that a vicar’s wife (who was a German) placed upon her husband.
