The Fortescue Arms is an imposing whitewashed public house in the village High Street named after a wealthy land owning family and Lords of the Manor and now embracing several properties although the original inn was built 300 years ago with stone reputed to have come from Sempringham Priory after it was sacked by Cromwell's troops during the Civil War.
