Fiskerton

Fiskerton is a small commuter village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. The population of the civil parish at the 2011 census was 1,209. It is situated approximately 6 miles east from the city and county town of Lincoln, and on the north side of the River Witham. Also home of the reported cryptic "Fiskerton phantom".

Fiskerton Grade I listed Anglican parish church, which stands at the side of the main road through the village, is dedicated to St Clement. It dates from the 11th century, and was restored in 1863. The arcade of the north aisle is Norman; that of the south aisle, Early English. The Perpendicular-style tower is square, but encloses an earlier round tower. Cox reports in 1916 that a brass effigy of a priest in the south aisle was restored to the church by Bishop Trollope in 1863, having been found in a Lincoln dealer's shop. A Wesleyan Methodist chapel was built in the village in 1839.
