Looking east from Newark Road into Front Street with Long Lane coming in from the left. The white building in the left distance is the The W illow Tree public house. The signpost indicates that via Long Lane it is 2 miles to Beckingham and 17 miles to Sleaford. The Willow Tree was originally a small farmhouse and barn and is thought to date from 1738. It became a licensed house in the 1870s when Thomas Grocock became 'beer-house keeper'. At the time of this photo it was a Courage pub.
