Epworth • St Andrew

A grade I listed building mostly 14th & 15th century but incorporating a 12th century name from an earlier building.

Many restorations have taken place over the centuries, the most recent 2012-2014 when evidence of a Saxon church was found as the floor was being prepared for under floor heating.

Samuel Wesley was Rector from 1695 to 1735 and his sons John and Charles were born and brought up in Epworth.

It is seen as the birthplace of Methodism.
