Church of St Nicholas

St Nicholas, East Kirkby The church is built of greenstone and Ancaster stone and is mainly of 14th-century architecture. The ground floor of the tower, its eastern window and west wall are of 13th-century architecture. As is the west and north walls, the south west window, the west window and the blocked windows in the north wall. The oak screens are 15th-century, as is the font. Sir Robert Silkstone (1290-1347), buried in the south aisle of the church, completely restored the church. Restoration work was also carried out in 1906 by W D Caroe, who also added the clerestory.
