The A15 (built in 1978) traverses the old runways of the former RAF Elsham Wolds airfield. Close to the village is Elsham Hall. Elsham Grade II* listed Anglican church, dedicated to All Saints, is of 12th century Early English origin.[2] It was restored in 1874.[3] At Elsham there was an Augustinian priory; it was dissolved during the 1536 Suppression.[3] The village is the birthplace of the agricultural engineer Richard Hornsby,[4] astronomer Wallace L. W. Sargent,[5] and George Green, a recipient of the Medal of Honor in the American Civil War.[6] Elsham is the home of the Pipers Crisp Co., winners of 23 "Great Taste Awards Gold" since 2007.[7] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11123190&c=Elsham&d=16&e=62&g=6382238&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1463395952424&enc=1|title=Civil Parish population 2011|accessdate=16 May 2016|publisher=Office for National Statistics|work=Neighbourhood Statistics}} 2. ^{{NHLE|num= 1103684|desc=Church of All Saints|accessdate=26 July 2011}} 3. ^1 Cox, J.
