Water Infrastructure
This looks like a pump head to me. I suspect they are extracting water from the North Beck. There is a brick structure in the bank visible in Image which looks to me like the point of extraction

Packhorse Bridge
Packhorse bridge at Northbeck, known locally as Roman Bridge, probably due to its proximity to Mareham Lane. Sometimes said to date from 1250, but most likely built in the 17th century and not technically a packhorse bridge as it's about 3m wide. The ford through North Beck has been replaced by a road and the bridge restored by Lincolnshire County Council in 2004.

Looking East from the footbridge
This is the stream called the North Beck. It is one of two natural waterways draining the low-lying land south of Sleaford (the other being the South Beck, which joins it a little to the west of here).
There is a ridge of high ground, the Burton Cliff, and this stream has cut through it south of Burton Penwardine, to reach the ancient seashore somewhere around Bicker. It now flows into the South Forty Foot, diverting it to Boston.
