In Pevsner's 'Buildings of England: Lincolnshire' he says that the tower of St Michael's is a puzzle as although it was apparently built in 1722 it has a blocked Norman window in its west face and a blocked Early English doorway in the north face. He concludes these were probably re-set. The rest of the church was rebuilt in 1912.
