Spalding, Lincolnshire

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A large market town on the Welland River in south Lincolnshire, Spalding is famous as a centre of bulb agriculture, and hosts an annual Flower Parade in spring. On Broad Street is the museum of the 'Gentleman's Society of Spalding', founded by Maurice Johnson in 1710. Famous members of the society include Newton, Pope, and Addison. Johnson's former home of Ayscoughfee Hall, initially built in 1430, stands outside Spalding. In the Market Place stands the White Hart Inn, which was built around 1377. Mary, Queen of Scots, stayed at the White Hart in 1566. The church of St Nicholas is also worth a visit; it dates to around 1284.
