Welcome to Skidbrooke

Skidbrooke is a small village located in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. The village is situated on the A16 road, which connects Grimsby to Boston. Skidbrooke has a population of around 200 people and is surrounded by farmland. The village is known for its historic church, St. Botolph's, which dates back to the 13th century.

St. Botolph's Church is the main attraction in Skidbrooke. The church is a Grade II listed building and is known for its unique architecture. The church has a tower that leans to one side, similar to the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The tower was built in the 14th century and has been leaning for over 600 years. The church also has a rare octagonal font, which is believed to be from the 15th century.

Skidbrooke is a quiet and peaceful village, with a strong sense of community. The village has a small primary school, a village hall, and a pub. The pub, The Axe and Cleaver, is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike. The pub serves traditional pub food and has a selection of real ales. Skidbrooke is surrounded by beautiful countryside, making it a great place for walking and cycling. The village is also close to the coast, with the seaside town of Mablethorpe just a short drive away.
