The church of St Maurice is an ancient edifice of brick and stone, partly in the Early English style, and consists of chancel, nave, aisles, north porch and a small western tower containing 3 bells: the interior was partially restored in 1868, at a cost of £450, and the exterior of the nave and the tower in 1895, at a cost of £500: in the church is a handsome tablet to the late Admiral Shirley, fifth son of the late Earl Ferrers: there are 190 sittings. The register dates from the year 1556. The living is a vicarage, net yearly value£150, with residence, in the gift of the Earl of Yarborough, and held since 1897 by the Rev.
