Beckingham, Lincolnshire

Beckingham, Lincolnshire

Beckingham is a village in the North Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. It is right by the Nottinghamshire border and the River Trent and on the A17 road east out of Newark-on-Trent.
Beckingham is mostly a residential community with a village shop and village hall. This village often has a problem with youths vandalising and causing trouble

All Saints Church dominates Beckingham but is in a poor state of repair. It was recently featured on the BBC TV program Restoration [http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/programmes/restoration/] . There was once a Beckingham railway station on the line between Gainsborough and Doncaster, but is is now shut.
