Ropsley was the birthplace of Richard Foxe, the Tudor bishop who funded the Grammar School at Grantham and Corpus Christi College at Oxford.

A 300-year-old ring dam, 0.5 miles (0.8 km) south-east from the village and identified by a group of trees, was once used as a sheep wash; the blue brickwork of the sheep wash can still be seen.^{[citation needed]} There are paths from the village, past the ring dam, to Little Humby.
