PARISH CHURCH, HORSINGTON

About Horsington

This is a pleasant village less than twenty miles from the Cathedral City of Lincoln.

Horsington has quiet country lanes where visitors can see pretty properties set within delightful gardens, hedgerows filled with wild flowers and meadows with lazy cattle and sheep. Of its many pleasures is the russet-brick stone-dressed parish church which is a rebuild of an earlier thatched church. All Saint's, erected in 1860 can be found in a peaceful churchyard surrounded by trees, their branches giving cover to ancient headstones and tombs. Another pleasure is its pleasant village pub - The Elder Tree.

With the Lincolnshire Fens lying to the south of the village and the lovely Wolds just 4 miles away, Horsington makes a lovely location from which to explore this very pleasant county. The seaside resort of Mablethorpe is within easy driving distance, Chapel-St.Leonard's and Skegness are also closeby. The tranquil inland resort of Woodhall Spa, with its golf course and woodland full of lovely Rhododendron bushes, can be found to the north of the village, thus visitors will find plenty to see and do.

The area offers plenty of overnight accommodation and holiday cottages.
