More about this scene

This is another of the Lincolnshire churches built with the local limestone. It overlooks the Trent and Witham valley towards the Nottinghamshire border. The tower of the church of St Peter was rebuilt in the 18th century after the previous one fell down. The church has been modernised recently with the addition of a kitchen and toilets, very useful additions. The path between the hedge and the stone wall is named the Cat Walk.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

This is the village where I was born and grew up. The first shop on the right was my Dad's, a Butcher. This was next to Welbourn's the baker. The other side of Tenters Lane was another Bakers, Marshall's. The village school then was in Church Lane next to the church and the teachers were Miss True, Mr Wright, Miss Milner, and Mr Powley, the Head. I went to this school and so did my Dad. I believe Mr Powley taught him too.
