The Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Plumtree is a parish church in the Church of England in Plumtree, Nottinghamshire.

The church is Grade II listed by the Department for Culture, Media & Sport as it is a building of special architectural or historic interest.[1][2]

History

The church is medieval but was heavily restored between 1873 and 1874, by George Frederick Bodley and Thomas Garner. The tower was rebuilt in 1906 by Percy Heylyn Currey.[3] Stained glass in the east of the chancel is said to be by Burlison and Grylls.[2]

The church had an early clock by Richard Roe in 1686. This was replaced in 1889.
