The former Wesleyan Methodist chapel in Saleby has been disused since it was last used for worship in 1984. It was built in 1855 and a schoolroom added in 1914.

St Margaret's is built in pale yellow brick, typical of the Alford and Farlesthorpe brickworks.

The windows are in the style of the early fourteenth century.

At the time of this photograph the bellcote over the west gable was under repair.

View from the east. The church is constructed of brick with a stone plinth.

Large trees close to the south side of the church make the interior dull - and make photographs difficult.

The effigy is possibly of William de Hardreshull who died in 1303. (The entry in Pevsner has more to say about this monument than the remainder of the church combined.)
