Folkingham House of Correction ... In the early 19th century Folkingham was part of Quarter Sessions, the higher court that dispensed justice for the area, which explains why a House of Correction, or minor prison, was built. It was constructed on the site of Folkingham Castle. The surviving Grade II* listed buildings consist of the original 19th-century governor's house and gateway, dating from 1808 and 1825.It was closed in 1878 but was taken over in about 1980 by the Landmark Trust, an organisation that converts unusual and neglected British buildings into holiday accommodation with modern amenities. They transformed the Gateway into a holiday home.#architecture

Greenfields Lane, Folkingham This lane is a public right of way from Folkingham to the site of the old Medieval village of West Laughton. It is reasonably well surfaced with stone rubble with a thin overlying covering of earth. Not too many muddy areas so an easy walk or cycle ride.

Greenfields Lane This track runs across the farmland between Folkingham and the old medieval village of West Laughton. Apart from short distances along the route that coincide with the network of footpaths in this area the track is classed as a "route with other public access".

Excellent value for money. Evening restaurant staff were very attentive. Room was getting tired and worn in places i.e. usb sockets not working, mis-matched taps and noisy heating.
