Background
History
Burgh on Bain was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) as part of the wapentake of Wraggoe. Local Bishop's transcripts date back to 1561, while parish records begin in 1575. There was a manor at Girsby (a medieval settlement), which was owned by the Fox family in the 19th century. It was abandoned before being demolished in the mid 20th century and replaced with a new house. One of Burgh on Bain's Bronze Age round barrows was excavated when RAF Ludford Magna was built in 1942. From the late 1950s to 1991, another round barrow was used as a Royal Observer Corps monitoring post.
