About Us
Scotter is a village in the West Lindsey District of Lincolnshire, England. It is geographically situated 9 miles north of Gainsborough and 7 miles south of Scunthorpe. The parish is made up of the rural villages of Scotter, Scotterthorpe and Susworth.
The present day village boasts a public library, a medical practice, a hotel (inc. bar and restaurant), a bed and breakfast, a cafe, three pubs, five takeaway outlets, two small supermarkets (one incorporating a Post Office); and a number of smaller shops (including hairdressers, barbers, beauticians etc.) There are three current places of worship – St Peters Church, Grace Church, and Scotter Methodist Chapel.
Scotter is a thriving, lively village, with a variety of organisations, many of which use the spacious Village hall as their venue. Leisure is well catered for in Scotter with large football fields, which host, among other activities; the Scotter United and Junior Football Club. Local clubs such as Scotter Tennis allows for social and competitive sport, as well as the opportunity to develop through match practice and coaching. Other activities include: karate, bowls, yoga, thai chi, cycling, badminton, football and much more!
Scotter has seen dramatic growth in the last decade and it became apparent the residents were not aware of all the organisations and societies which operate in their local community. This site is trying to change that and new and old residents alike may find something of worth on this website.
