A war memorial in the grounds of the Grade II * Listed St John the Baptist Church, Scampton, West Lindsey, Lincolnshire.

 

The church originally dates from the 13th century with the current tower being added in the 14th century. It was substantially restored in 1876 by Bodley & Garner and the windows in the north aisle came from the demolished Scampton Manor House.

 

Due to the close location to RAF Scampton the churchyard contains many graves of airmen who fought in the Second World War.
