At the rear of the main field approximately half an acre has been set aside as a wild life area. This area, recently awarded a commendation from Lincolnshire Wild Life Trust, is a peaceful area for villagers and visitors to sit and watch and listen to the bird song and insect life which abounds there.
Villagers have stocked the pond with fish and although the weed is a problem, many anglers young and old enjoy a peaceful couple of hours fishing. Fishing is at present free to villagers but the committee would welcome a fishing club to maintain and manage the pond.
A walkway is maintained around the pond with the edges and verges allowed to develop naturally. Throughout the summer wild flowers grow and bloom giving an ever changing vista, a pair of orchids have shown in the past two years, and many villagers enjoy blackberry picking in the autumn.
