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.

Buckminster House
This was a children's home in 1955 when my sister and I were placed there after my mother contracted tuberculosis. The foreground was at that time a lawn. We children had to pick out all the stones before the lawn was seeded, and I found a George III cartwheel penny dating from 1797.

Buckminster Old House, Billingborough
This was just called "Buckminster House" in 1955 when I lived there, in the then children's home. Where the red bushes are on the right was our playground, a sandy area where I practised the high jump, among other things. At a guess, there were about 30 children, and a staff of perhaps 10.
