Boothby Pagnell is a village and

civil parish in the South Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. The population is now included in the civil parish of Bitchfield and Bassingthorpe
.

History

The Norman manor house

The village lay in the historical

wapentake of Winnibriggs and Threo.[1]

Boothby Pagnell has a Grade I listed[2] surviving fragment of a medieval manor house, in the Norman style, dating from around 1200 AD.[3][4]

The village was a small community, its population in 1086 being just 19. It has archaeological remains at Cooks Close, a field west of the church, which is chiefly of medieval housing that seems to have fallen into disuse and dereliction by the 14th century, possibly as a result of the fall in the workforce in the aftermath of the Black Death.[citation needed]

John de Bothby, Lord Chancellor of Ireland, was born here about 1320 and took his name from the village.

Isaac Newton

Although his uncle William Ayscough, the brother of Hannah Ayscough, was vicar of nearby

Humphrey Babington, the brother of Katherine Babington. She was a friend of Hannah Ayscough and the wife of William Clark, the owner of the house at which Newton lodged in Grantham while at school.[citation needed
]

In his memoirs, Newton noted that he worked on Fluxions (which became differential calculus) at Babington's rectory and also calculated the area under a hyperbola (involving integral calculus).[5]

Geography

The village is just north of

2001 Census it had a population of 150. Boothby Pagnell forms the most western point of 'The Ropsley Triangle', which denotes the general area between Ropsley, Boothby Pagnell and Ingoldsby
