St Nicholas Church, North Walsham, Parish church in North Walsham, England.

St Nicholas Church features a decorative entrance porch with heraldic shields and statues of Saint Benedict, Saint Nicholas, and Virgin Mary with infant Christ.

The construction of the church began in 1338 but faced delays due to the Black Death plague of 1348, with final completion occurring in 1406.

The church contains a collection of medieval artifacts, including a carved telescopic font cover, an iron-bound chest with seven locks, and misericord seats.

The church opens daily for visitors, offering morning prayer services at 9 a.m. on weekdays and broadcasting live services through YouTube for remote participation.

The ruined tower, originally 147 feet tall with a timber spire reaching 180 feet, partially collapsed in 1724 during the Ascensiontide Fair due to bell vibrations.
