Fulletby |
|
| Fulletby, is a tranquil village and is famed as being the birthplace of Henry Winn, prolific writer and poet. Henry Winn grew up in the village, one of six children of the village's shoemaker. After marrying a local girl, they had twenty-one children, (only four survived). He at first followed his father into shoemaking, but in 1850 when the village school was built, he became the first master. In 1880 he gave this up and began to record village history and the life of Lincolnshire people. Winn died in 1914 at the age of 98.Richard, Henry Winn's brother, was the village's stonemason, wheelwright and carver and had a blacksmith's shop in School Lane.After the Blacksmith's shop was demolished many years after his death, the horseshoe along with three stone carvings of gargoyles were retrieved and are now incorporated in to the walls of both cottages. | |
Horncastle |
|
| On the southern edge of the Wolds lies Horncastle Voted Best Antiques Town in 2001, this appealing town is a great place to wander and soak up the rural atmosphere.There are in excess of twenty different shops dealing in antiques and collectables and they are full of unusual items. Every year visitors come to find a great range of items here at very reasonable pricesHorncastle is very proud of its history. The Roman occupation of the town is still evident, and it is from this era that the name Horncastle originates - from its position between the River Waring and Bain ‘the camp in the corner’. If you look in the library on Wharf Road part of the origninal wall can be seen.TThe Church of St. Mary that was built of green sandstone in the 12th century. This church has many beautiful stained-glass windows as well as thirteen scythe blades said to have been used in the Lincolnshire Rising of 1536. On the South Aisle wall of the church is a memorial to Sir Ingram Hopton, killed at the Civil War Battle of Winceby in 1643 (the Battlefield site lies near Snipe Dales Country Park and Nature Reserve, east of the town).The markets held on Thursdays and Saturdays are presided over by the Stanhope Memorial, commemorating Edward Stanhope, Lord of the Manor, M.P. and local benefactor. There is a wonderful atmosphere with the hustle and bustle of shoppers. Horncastle is a fine place in which to wander with the town being mainly a combination of 18th and 19th century buildings. The picturesque King’s Head Public House is one of the few remaining mud and stud buildings with a full thatched roof and is situated near to the new Horncastle Tourist Information Centre (TIC).Look out for the Navigation Canal that was so important to the wealth of the town during the 19th century. |

Lincoln |

The City of LINCOLN is steeped in 2,000 years of history, and as you wander around you will see evidence of both Roman and Medieval periods as well as notable architecture left by the Tudors and Georgians. The Cathedral, one of Europe's finest, sits on part of the site of a first-century Roman fortress high on the hill. Close by is the Norman Castle built by William the Conqueror on the site of the former Roman fortress, which dates from 1068. |
