A secular college was founded at the parish church of St Peter, Sibthorpe, in 1335 and dissolved in 1545. (1)
Very little remains of the college chapels, St Mary and St Anne, which stood N of chancel and nave. (2)
The N fabric of St Peter's church is an original arcade, now blocked. The college chapels probably took the form of an original N aisle to the church, disused at the Reformation. (3)
