More about this scene
On the A52 between Nottingham and Grantham, Bottesford is the most northerly settlement in the county. An expansive village, it sits on the River Devon, about a mile north of the Grantham Canal of 1797. This view looks south, away from the church. On the left is the base of the stepped 14th-century cross, which retains the eroded arms of the de Roos family, a number of whom are buried in the church, including Robert de Roos (1285) and William, Lord Roos (1414). The historic village centre peters out beyond the right- hand turn into the High Street.
