Welcome to Leake Commonside

Leake Commonside is a small village located in the county of Lincolnshire, England. The village is situated on the eastern edge of the county, close to the border with Norfolk. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, with rolling hills and fields of crops stretching out as far as the eye can see. The village itself is small, with a population of just over 100 people, but it has a strong sense of community and a rich history.

One of the most notable features of Leake Commonside is the village church, St. Mary's. The church dates back to the 12th century and is a beautiful example of Norman architecture. The church is still in use today and is a popular destination for visitors to the village. Another notable feature of the village is the Leake Common, a large area of open land that is used for grazing livestock and as a recreational space for the local community. The common is also home to a number of rare plant and animal species, making it an important site for conservation.

Despite its small size, Leake Commonside has a rich history that is reflected in its architecture and landmarks. The village has a number of listed buildings, including several that date back to the 17th and 18th centuries. These buildings are a testament to the village's past and provide a glimpse into what life was like in rural Lincolnshire centuries ago. Today, Leake Commonside is a peaceful and picturesque village that is popular with visitors who are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy the tranquility of the countryside.
