Braceby and Sapperton is a civil parish located in the county of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated in the South Kesteven district and covers an area of approximately 16 square kilometers. The parish is made up of two small villages, Braceby and Sapperton, which are located about 2 miles apart.

Braceby is a charming village with a population of around 100 residents. It is known for its picturesque countryside and traditional stone cottages. The village features a medieval church, St. Margaret's Church, which dates back to the 12th century and is a prominent landmark in the area.

Sapperton, on the other hand, is a slightly larger village with a population of around 200 residents. It is known for its beautiful countryside and tranquil atmosphere. The village is surrounded by farmland and offers stunning views of the rolling hills of Lincolnshire.

Both villages have a strong sense of community and a friendly atmosphere. They offer a peaceful rural lifestyle and are popular among those seeking a quiet retreat from city life. Despite their small size, the villages are well-connected to nearby towns and cities, with good road links to Grantham, Lincoln, and Nottingham.

In terms of amenities, Braceby and Sapperton have limited facilities. There are no shops or pubs in the villages, but residents can access a wider range of services in nearby towns. The primary school serving the area is located in the neighboring village of Horbling.

Pipe delivery This lorry is delivering pipe segments for Project SPAR - the Strategic Pipeline Alliance. Anglian Water is arranging to pipe surplus water from Elsham in North Lincolnshire to Colchester in Essex, where there is a shortage. As it happens, the lorry left again still loaded, as there was no crane to unload it.

Pipeline route The route for Project SPAR - the Strategic Pipeline Alliance. Anglian Water is arranging to pipe surplus water from Elsham in North Lincolnshire to Colchester in Essex, where there is a shortage. The pipe sections, 900mm in diameter, will be welded to form the pipeline. The river has been covered and sheeted over to prevent contamination, and the archaeology cleared. You can't open the soil anywhere round here without finding Roman remains or Anglo Saxon burials. Medieval Lincolnshire was like one enormous village, scatted across the whole wold.
