This huge picturesque house was built in 1836-42 by Charles Tennyson d’Eyncourt, uncle of the poet Tennyson.

Bayons Manor was blown up by the then owner in 1965.

The ironstone tower of  All Saints is Norman work in its lowest stage, while the nave has architecture dating from the 13th to the 15th centuries.

The chancel, remodelled by James Fowler in 1871, has many memorials to members of the Tennyson d’Eyncourt family of Bayons Manor.

Tealby, 3 miles north east of Market Rasen, is generally considered to be one of the most beautiful villages in the County.

It was the site of Bayons Manor, a Gothic marvel, built for Charles Tennyson D’Eyncourt between 1836 & 1840. Having become derelict, it was blown up in 1964.

Tealby has a thatched pub, the Kings Head.

The first school at Tealby was erected by Charles Tennyson-d’Eyncourt in 1857/8 and was rebuilt in fine style after a fire in 1889. It was then known as the d’Eyncourt School until the First World War.

The main school classroom has a huge window in Perpendicular style and very fine hammer-beam roof.

This well-known village pub claims to have its origins in the 1360s, though the thatched mud and stud building shown here is listed by National Heritage as 17th century.

It continues to be a popular pub and restaurant.

Tealby is considered by many to be Lincolnshire's most attractive village. Certainly in the north of the county no other village can boast such an attractive setting and a wide range of house and cottages.
