Boston is in the county of Lincolnshire, a rural area
of rolling countryside extending to the coast with long sweeping
beaches and popular seaside resorts. There are quaint country
market towns, imposing medieval churches, castles and appealing
villages. Lincoln itself is the region's outstanding attraction,
its cathedral is the third largest church in England. The flat
extensive fenlands of Lincolnshire are home to one of the last
areas in the country to rely on wind power in its mills, where
the remains of more than 130 windmills can be found. The beautiful
Lincolnshire Wolds with open rolling hills and steep deep-sided
valleys are a recognised Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
