Mareham Lane, the Roman Road aligned with King Street, crosses the A15 at Threekingham. == History == Threekingham parish church is dedicated to St. Peter ad Vincula〔(Geograph )〕 (St Peter in chains). The village public house is the Three Kings Inn.〔("Three Kings Inn, Threekingham" ), Geograph〕 The Medieval Stow Fair was held nearby, less than to the south. It is possible that it was the site of the early medieval nunnery founded in the late 7th century by Saint Werburh, dedicated to Saint Æthelthryth, and probably destroyed by the Danes c. 870. There are ancient earthworks and a mound called Threekingham Beacon to the west of the village. The post-medieval garden features overlie much older earthworks and tumuli. The remains of a moated manor house are in Hall Lane.
