Burton Coggles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Burton Coggles (full name Burton-le-Coggles from Byrton-en-les-Coggles) is a small village located south of Grantham in south Lincolnshire, England, half a mile from the B1176 and 250 metres from the East Coast Main Line. There are 43 houses and the population is little over 100. Until recently the village still retained a post office on Post Office Lane, but public services are now restricted to the Cholmeley Arms public house (still commonly known as The Hare & Hounds - the house's previous name), and a small village hall. Local services are found in Corby Glen. The village is mainly an agriculture village, but there has been a shift in recent years towards more commuting.
The church is St Thomas a Becket. William Ayscough, the Trinity College-educated brother of Hannah Ayscough, was the rector of the village church in the 1600s.
