| I took this at the Square back in the summer 1940's event, nice to look back on. |

| Previously a Mapletoft Schoolhouse, now a private residence. |
 |
| Not sure if this is demolition or renovation. |

This cottage on the edge of the Square was badly damaged many years ago but, thanks to
the villagers, it was fully restored.

Most English villages have a Methodist Chapel, some are still in use. Others are
closed and often derelict but this one at North Thoresby is beautifully maintained
and still in use.
