Mexborough parish church is very ancient in origin. Documents show that a church was on this site shortly after the Norman Conquest in 1066. In 1350-1400 the church consisted of a tower and spire, a nave and a square-headed chancel. When the refurbishment in 1890 started, it was evident that the church had gone through three stages of restoration.
