Langrick

Langrick is a small village in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is in the civil parish of Langriville, and on the B1192 road, north-west from Boston. The village lies in the Lincolnshire Fens, and less than east from the River Witham.

==History== The name Langrick appears to come from "Long Creek" and is at the very southern edge of Wildmore Fen, in an area which was once the manor of Armtree, in the parish of Coningsby. It was once the site of a hermitage belonging to Kirkstead Abbey. When Langrick and Langriville were enclosed in 1812 there was not a single house existing. Langrick's importance was that it was the site of a ferry crossing over the River Witham, reputedly built by Robert Dymoke. The river was straightened in 1833.
