NOTES: Wothorpe House was built as a lodge in the early 17th century by Thomas Cecil, the first Earl of Exeter, the eldest son of William Cecil, first Lord Burghley. It was partially dismantled in the 1750s during the landscaping of Burghley Park by Lancelot Capability Brown, who used stone from the lodge for the creation of a stable block.

NOTES: This was or was planned as a cruciform church, but the nave was either never finished or was burned by the French in the 14th century. The chancel with aisles and the arches and ruins of the transepts remain. Except for the 15th century west porch, what remains though, is still largely 14th century.
