The Church of whipping-post.[2]
The churchyard contains the
First World War.[3]
The church is a prominent feature of the village, but is inconspicuous from the Market Place. In 2006 it was damaged when gale force winds blew down two of the four pinnacles, one of which fell onto the roof causing damaging costing more than £100,000 to repair.[4]
Folkingham is part of the Parish of South Lafford in the Deanery of Lafford, Diocese of Lincoln.[5]
