Opening
We are generally only open for Sunday services, weddings, baptisms and funerals. Special services at Easter and Christmas will be advertised on this website, as well as for example Heritage Open Days, Spring Flower Festivals and Christmas Tree Festivals. If you wish to visit the church outside these times that can be made possible if people are available. Please make contact with us. The churchyard is open all year round.
Getting here
Great Coates is on the edge of Grimsby, and traffic coming in and out of the town from the A180 passes on a road which was cut through the Rectory garden in the 1950s.
Looking across the churchyard (famous for its spring flowers) passers by see what was the village church with its large fourteenth century tower.
Those who come in find central pillars dating from about 1200 and a perfect atmosphere for reflection and prayer.
Those who enquire further can encounter the pre-Reformation brasses and even rub the recently created replicas of them.
Those who stay find a regular congregation of about two dozen at 10.30 a.m. most Sundays who are stuck into everything from care of neighbours to promoting fair trade.
