About Ketton

Ketton, a village in Rutland, breathes the quietude of the East Midlands. It lies 5.6 km west-south-west of Stamford (from Stamford: bearing 241°T, OS grid SK 979 042), and is situated north-west of Collyweston village. The pale stone of its dwellings catches the diffused light of Lincolnshire skies, a soft glow that seems to emanate from the very earth. For centuries, the lifeblood of Ketton has been its limestone, quarried and shaped with a patient hand, its pale rock forming the bones of cathedrals and stately homes far and wide. The River Welland, a silver ribbon, whispers its ancient tales along the village's edge, its waters once powering the mills that hummed with productive industry. Even now, a sense of enduring craftsmanship lingers in the air, a quiet pride in the sturdy foundations laid long ago.
