Like many marshland churches a mixture of greenstone and brick. The tower and nave of Holy Trinity, Bilsby, are eighteenth-century whilst the chancel and north arcade are Perpendicular.

The odd shape of the tower of this windmill is the result of significant repair work following the loss of cap and sails in 1901.
