Remains of Cawkwell medieval village. The village was mentioned in a document of 1354. A priest for the Church of St Peter was last instituted in c.1512-47. The church still stood in 1872, but was gone by 1924, with some of the masonry being re-used at the church at Scamblesby. Aerial photos show considerable earthwork remains of the village around TF 2806 7976, with cultivation traces out to the north-west to TF 2731 8025. {1}{2}{3}{4}
