Scamblesby is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district from Lincolnshire, England. It is situated 6 miles (10 km) south-west from Louth, on the A153 road, and within the Lincolnshire Wolds, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

History

In 1185, Roger de Maletoth gave a bovate, around 20 acres of land, at Scamblesby, to the Knights Templar.[2]

In 1507, the prebend of Scamblesby was held by Polydore Vergil, an Italian historian and priest, who had moved to England in 1502.[3] Vergil held the prebend until 1513 but lived mainly in London.[4]

In 1672, Herbert Thorndike, Canon of Westminster Abbey, left the 'lands and tenements' he owned in Scamblesby, to be held in trust, to provide a 'perpetual vicarage' for the local church.[5]

The village Anglican parish church is dedicated to St Martin. It was partially rebuilt in the 1890s and seats around 100.[citation needed]

Education

In 2007 Scamblesby Church of England Primary School achieved examination grades higher than the local and the national average.[6] Its 2012 Ofsted inspection judgements rated the school as Grade 2 (good) overall.[7] The school has a website found here
