Landmarks
The Church of St Gilbert and St Hugh, dating to 1902, was built by William Bucknall and Ninian Comper, and was Grade II listed in 1988, being described as a chapel of ease. Its construction is of timber framing on a brick plinth. It comprises a nave with bellcote, a chancel, vestry and south porch. A restoration of the church was begun in 2001.[7][8]
In the church are four gilded wooden angels, carved and donated by Belgian refugees during World War I. Their restoration, by Will Kirk, was shown in an episode of the BBC Television programme The Repair Shop in April 2020.[9][10][11]
At the south of Gosberton Clough on Beck Bank is 'Bank House', of two-storey and five bays, Grade II listed as c.1830 with some 20th-century alterations. At the time of listing in 1988 it was an old people's home.[12]
A further Grade II property is Rigbolt House on Beck Bank Шаблон:Convert south from the village. The house dates to the 16th century, with alterations in the 18th, 19th and 20th. The current house is mid-Georgian of two-storeys and three bays in T-plan, and of red brick laid in Flemish bond, with slate roof. The house was formerly a moated cell of the Gilbertine Order.[13][14] Rigbolt House is today part of a farm; in the 19th-century it was part of a Gosberton hamlet of Rigbolt.[6]
