St Margaret's Church, Owthorpe is a Grade II* listed parish church in the Church of England [1] in Owthorpe, Nottinghamshire, England.
Owthorpe has an unusual Grade II* listed Anglican church, dedicated to St Margaret of Antioch, once considered a patron saint of pregnancy. [2] It stands away from the village in farmland, surrounded by a low wall, next to the site where the manor stood. Access is only along a public footpath – a narrow grass track, often muddy in the winter months – and through a timber gate.
Some features of St Margaret's date from the 12th century, although the structure underwent many changes over the centuries. It was rebuilt about 1650. [3] The north wall is a surviving part of the original, larger church. Inside it has an oak-panelled, three-decker pulpit-cum-lectern with a Jacobean canopy, which is still in use. [4]
In 1680 the church installed a clock built by Richard Roe of Epperstone. [5]
The octagonal castellated font [6] is thought to be from the 15th century. A wooden screen dividing the nave from the chancel is said to have come from Owthorpe Hall. [7]
The church was restored in 1888 [8] and again in 1905 by Arthur Brewill and Basil Baily [9] when the plaster ceiling was removed to expose the roof timbers, and the masonry of the windows was restored and the windows reglazed.
