The
Church
Dr. Johnson used to worship here
when he visited his friend Bennet Langton at the Hall, and on one celebrated
occasion took off his coat and rolled down a grassy hill. If he revisited the
church now, he would still feel at home in it, although the east end would
probably surprise him.
An early 18th C. building, with tiered seats, facing
north and south, a three-decker pulpit and a gallery, all unspoiled by
restoration. (CEPC) The gallery stands on thin
fluted columns.

me with these pictures, as the site was hacked into

many vital records, especially
Lincolnshire, were destroyed. |
