- Cagthorpe
Cagthorpe is a picturesque area of Horncastle south of and separated from the historic town centre by the re-aligned
River Waring and the A158 (Jubilee Way). It is accessible by vehicle only from TheWong and Hopton Street. It is accessible on foot from Coronation Walk which runs to the town Swimming Pool, across a footbridge over the disusedHorncastle Navigation Canal , and onto West Street, and from St. Mary's Square across the pedestrian crossing that crosses Jubilee Way.It is unusual in that the street is simply named 'Cagthorpe' leading to the whole area being know by that name. It was once a separate village (with roots as a Anglo-Saxon settlement, separate from the Roman town of Horncastle itself).
