[13] Coningsby is overlooked by the tower of its 15th-century parish church, St Michael's, with its one-handed clock face.
In 1730, Britain's youngest Poet Laureate, Laurence Eusden who was appointed aged thirty, was buried in the church where he had been Rector.
[14] Two decades later another poet, John Dyer, was appointed as Rector and while living in the village completed his poem "The Fleece".
Half a mile (1 km) to the south of the town is RAF Coningsby, one of the Royal Air Force's most important stations, home of No.
These aircraft still fly and can be seen at air shows during summer, as well as at events of national importance or RAF significance.
