The tiny small village of Tickncote is a few miles north-west of Stamford next to the busy A1. The village lies on a slope from the Great North Road to the river Gwash below. The characterful church dates from the 12th century, but a major rebuild in 1792 entirely remoulded the unusual exterior. The interior notably boasts an impressive Norman archway, which may be of interest. The churchyard has a few tree species and many areas to explore.
