St.Andrew's church, Beesby, Lincs. A curious marriage of vibrant red brick and stone. The chancel looks 13th century but much restored, but the 1841 rebuilding of the nave uses brick on the south side and stone on the north.

Perimeter Bridleway This bridleway leading to Manor Farm follows the old perimeter road of the former RAF Strubby airfield.  This bridleway was probably created around the airfield since the siting of the runways removed a road which linked the same two points as the bridleway.
