==Churches== thumb|left| The former site of the manor house, which is now a pond The first church in Rempstone, St Peter in the Rushes, stood approximately half a mile (1 km) north-east of the present village near the Sheepwash Brook, next to a former moated manor house, which is now a pond used for fishing. A holy spring is also at this located at this site. An archaeological dig, which took place between 1960 and 1962, revealed the foundations of a 12th-century tower with square buttresses. Earthworks near the brook indicate the original site of the village.
