Scamblesby Methodist Church

Situated at the highest point within the village, enables you to get the most fantastic views of the Lincolnshire Wolds, the Viking Way and the rolling countryside. The church contains unusual and ancient Poppy Head pew ends, which are thought to be of monastic origins.

Nicholas Leache, rector of Belchford in 1536, was one of the ringleaders in the Lincolnshire Rising in which 3,000 people marched through the county to protest against closure of the monasteries by Henry VIII. After the Rising had been quashed Nicholas Leache along with others was hanged, drawn and quartered at Tyburn for treason.

This quant parish church of St Nicholas holds a wonderful story within its walls. For inside are memorials to two Spanish citizens of the Guevera family who came to England with Katherine of Aragon.
