"In 1961 with the building of the Giles School, the children aged 11 were transferred there.

The two Butterwick Schools combined under one Head Teacher, Miss D Calthrop, with the infants using the Boys' School and the juniors using the Girls' School.

The Governors had a new building constructed, combining both groups of children in 1973, with 5 classrooms"

"There has been a school in Butterwick for a very long time.

In 1665 Anthony Pinchbeck left seventy-four acres of land to a group of people who were charged with the task of administering the land, renting it to farmers and using the rent to provide a grammar school for all the boys in the surrounding area and a house for the headmaster.

On October 23rd 1876, under the Endowed Schools Act, the endowment of the school is devoted to Elementary Education - no longer a grammar school.

The old building was to be adapted as an infant and girls' school and a new school built for boys"

"The post office "first started at a large house in a farmyard in Benington Road, (only outbuildings remain) before moving to a cottage at 9 Old Post Office Lane, for many years (now a private house).

Eventually the Post Office moved to the Village Shop in Brand End Road next door to what is now the Fish Shop"

St Andrew, Butterwick, is a 'delightful amalgam of stone and brick' (Thorold *).

It has a Georgian brick tower and Tudor brick clerestory, but the rest is much patched-up and rebuilt with some Early English work.
