Ss Peter & Paul church, Skendelby


Grade II listed

A church was mentioned in the Domesday book of 1086. The profits from the church went to Bardney Abbey.

The church dates from the thirteenth century onwards and was restored in 1875 by Sir George Gilbert Scott.
The church is built in ashlar, greenstone, and some brick, with a slate roof.
There is a western tower, nave, south porch, north vestry, and chancel. There are no aisles, therefore the nave is quite lofty.
The tower is of two stages with embattled parapet.

In the south chancel there is a low sedilia and fourteenth century piscina and aumbry with human head label stops. There are several fourteenth century windows throughout the church.
The font is fifteenth century and has eight carved heads, one a male human head.

There are several stained-glass windows in the church and a small organ.
