Leverton Road entering Sturton le Steeple
'Sturton' means 'settlement on the street'; the street being the Roman road from Lincoln which crossed the Trent at the important ford at nearby Littleborough. The 'Steeple' suffix appeared in the 19th century, possibly in reference to the twelve pinnacles on the church tower (http://www.sturton-le-steeple.org.uk/?page_id=187).
The village's most important 'son' was John Robinson. Born here in 1575, he was the founding influence of the 'Pilgrim Fathers' who colonised North America.
