Dist:0.2km<br/>This house in Loosegate is by the side of Seas End Road. If global warming raises sea level as it is expected this house will, I assume, become a beach hut.

Dist:0.7km<br/>"In a green lane, in this parish, stands a small stone, called Elloe Stone, which gives name to this hundred; it stands about the middle of it. This was formerly the main road across the country, now called Old Spalding Gate.

Old men (says Stukeley) tell us that here was formerly kept an annual court, I suppose a convention sub dis, of the adjacent parts, to treat of their general affairs : a wood hard by is called Elloe Stone Wood."

From The History of the County of Lincolnshire by Thomas Allen in 1834

Dist:1.2km north<br/>The white spot on the horizon is a large marquee. There is something a little uncomfortable about the fact that weeds grow happily at this field margin but the rest of the field remains lifeless.
