St Mary's Church, Rostherne, Gothic and Neoclassical church in Rostherne, England.
The red sandstone church stands near Rostherne Mere, featuring a three-stage tower with a clock on its south side and slate-lead roofing.
The original structure dates from 1188, with the current tower built between 1742 and 1744 after the previous steeple collapsed in November 1741.
The interior contains memorials to local families, including a recumbent effigy of a knight from the reign of Henry III and tributes to the Egerton family.
The church maintains regular services, with recent additions of modern facilities such as a kitchenette and accessibility improvements for wheelchair users.
The churchyard contains a Grade II listed sundial and a lych gate from 1640 with an original wooden weight and pulley closing mechanism.
