St Wulfram's Church, Grantham, Anglican parish church in Grantham, England.

The church features a 274-foot-high spire, making it the sixth highest in England and second tallest in Lincolnshire, with a central tower visible across the town.

Built around 1180, the structure underwent Norman rebuilding after a fire in 1222, with wool merchants funding its medieval construction through their textile trade profits.

The church includes a collection of over 80 medieval books in the Trigge Library from 1598, secured by chains to protect these valuable manuscripts.

The interior accommodates 700 seated visitors and 200 standing, measuring 196 feet in length and 75 feet in width, with limited parking nearby.

The church contains three medieval chapels - Lady Chapel, Crypt Chapel, and Corpus Christi Chapel - each preserving distinct architectural elements from different periods.
