St George's Church is a redundant Anglican church in the deserted village of Goltho, Lincolnshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building, [1] and under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.[2] The church is in a field, and can be approached only by footpaths to the south of the A158 road, 2 miles (3 km) southwest of Wragby, and 11 miles (18 km) northeast of Lincoln.[2][3] The church was the last evidence surviving above ground of the deserted medieval village and manorial holding dating from the ninth century on the site of a Romano-British settlement,.[4][5] The church was severely fire damaged in 2013.[6]
