Somersby, Lincolnshire

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Somersby is a village in the Lincolnshire Wolds. Its most famous native was Alfred, Lord Tennyson, who was born at the rectory here in 1809 (his father George became rector in 1808). The Georgian style Somersby Manor stands opposite the 15th century church. It was built by Sir John Vanbrugh, architect of Castle Howard, in 1722. The village should not be confused with the similarly named 'Somerby'.
