Lincolnshire (Pevsner Architectural Guides: Buildings of England)

Lincolnshire is incredibly rich in medieval churches from Saxon times onwards, many of them still little known. Lincoln Cathedral is justly famous, and second only to Durham in the grandeur of its setting. The prosperous years from the Middle Ages though to the eighteenth century have left a splendid legacy in the great town churches of Boston and Louth, in the innumerable village churches of the south of the county, the delightful manor houses (such as Tennyson's Somersby) and the Georgian town houses and coaching inns of Boston and Grantham, of Lincoln and Louth, and above all of Stamford. Monuments to industry include the vast maltings at Sleaford, the soaring dock tower of Grimsby, and an abundance of windmills.

The LincolnshireWolds comprise an area of approximately
216 square miles / 558 square kilometres.
In recent years the delights of its quiet, unspoilt
countryside which offer great walking opportunities
have become better known and appreciated.
TheWolds were designated as an Area of
Outstanding Natural beauty (AONB) in 1973.They
are made up of Cretaceous rocks, primarily chalk
but with some limestone in the south.These dip
towards the east, where many glacial valleys divide
the gentler slopes, but conversely create a steep
scarp slope to the west.TheWolds therefore
present an extremely attractive walking environment
that is rarely very demanding given that the highest
point is 551 feet (168 metres).The hills do however
appear higher in places for theWolds are
surrounded by the low-lying land of the coastal
marshes to the east and the "fen-like" valleys of
the RiversWitham and Ancholme to the west.
All the walks have been carefully selected to give
as wide as possible an overview of this lovely part of
Lincolnshire balanced with an attempt to explore
some of its lesser-known areas.They range in
distance from 4 to 10 miles and are ideal for
families and groups of friends.
