Dist:0.6km<br/>Inside the church on the north aisle wall, in a lady chapel is a Hopton Wood stone memorial plaque to a World War 2 pilot. The plaque measures 730mm wide and 450mm high. It was certainly placed in the church after 8th March, 1947, when a faculty was approved for this memorial.

Dist:0.6km<br/>This obelisk has 10 names inscribed on it G. BRUMBY R. SMITH G. ENDERBY J. SMITH G. PARRISH W. TURNER A. SIMPSON A. TURNER A. SMITH E. VAMPLEW The stone work of rough granite, built by Mawer Brothers of Louth has suffered from the constant dripping of moisture from the tree under which it stands tall, so the names carved in stone are a little illegible.

Dist:0.6km<br/>The parish church of St. Edith's is about 200 metres north of the B1200. It is normally locked, but a key can be obtained from the post office which is next door. There is an obelisk in the churchyard erected in memory of the men who left the village to fight in the Great War and never returned. There is also a plaque to a Peter Fox, a pilot in World War 2, lost over Darwin, Australia.

Dist:0.7km<br/>The windows of the Post Office are so plastered with posters that there is hardly any daylight inside. The tower of St Edith's can just be seen in the background.
