Walesby, Lincolnshire

Walesby is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It lies in the Lincolnshire Wolds, 3 miles (5 km) north-east from Market Rasen and 7 miles (11 km) south from Caistor. Tealby parish lies to the south-east. The parish covers about 3,600 acres (15 km2) and includes the hamlets of Risby and Otby.
St Mary’s is an Arts and Crafts style Church designed by the Irish architect, Temple Moore in 1913. The church was shut after the 2008 Lincolnshire earthquake when a large crack appeared in the tower and masonry fell inside the church. St Mary’s was also damaged in the 1930s when a hurricane dislodged its 'candle snuffer' spire resulting in its eventual removal.
In the 1930s an earlier church, All Saints', was renovated after it fell into disuse. Now known as the "Ramblers Church" it features a 1951 stained glass window detailing walkers and cyclists. The Viking Way passes close to All Saints.
