    The Church of St Nicholas in the village of Grosmont, Monmouthshire, Wales, is a parish church dating from the 13th century.

Largely unaltered from the time of its building, by the 19th century the church has seriously decayed and its tower was close to collapse. It was rescued from dereliction in a restoration undertaken by John Pollard Seddon and financed by John Etherington Welch Rolls. An active parish church, it is a Grade I listed building.
