About this cemetery
Sempringham was the site of a priory, and the abbey church of St Andrew stands there today. Gilbert died at Sempringham in 1189 and was buried in the priory church, and he was canonised in 1202. The priory was dissolved in 1538, and the estate was later bought by the Clinton family. The churchyard is also listed by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
