| St Andrew, Ashby Puerorum by Dave Hitchborne |
Delightful Grade II listed church with outstanding views of the Lincolnshire Wolds. It houses a 3cwt tenor bell from around 1150, believed to be the oldest in England. Historic links to Bishop Oliver Sutton (1280-1299), when the living was appropriated to provide an endowment for the boy choristers of Lincoln Cathedral, hence the name Ashby Puerorum (Ashby of the boys). The church was restored in 1850-1878 by Ewan Christian, and the windows are from that time. Mounted on the south side are several 16th century brasses to members of the Littlebury family Stainsby.
