St. Mary the Virgin's Church, sometimes known as the "Lady of the Vale", is a large medieval church at the centre of the village. The Church is also the burial place of several earls of Rutland, one of the Rutland tombs is famous for its inscription, which attributes a death to witchcraft by the Witches of Belvoir. The Witches of Belvoir were three women, a mother and her two daughters, accused of witchcraft in England around 1618. The mother, Joan Flower, died while in prison, and the two daughters, Margaret and Philippa, were hanged at Lincoln.
