Rood screen and loft in St Wilfrid's church, North Muskham. The loft and rood date from the 1906 restoration of the church, although the screen includes a substantial amount of old timber, probably Tudor - this would be contemporary with the 16th century rebuilding of the church. The original door and part of the rood loft stairs are still in place behind the pulpit.

The rood itself consists of a heavily cusped 5-bay screen with a nodding crested canopy forming the rood loft.
