Welcome to Boston West

Boston is a market town located in the West Lincolnshire region of England. It is situated on the banks of the River Witham and is known for its rich history and cultural heritage. The town has a population of around 35,000 people and is a popular tourist destination due to its many attractions and landmarks.

One of the most notable landmarks in Boston is the St. Botolph's Church, also known as the Boston Stump. This impressive church tower stands at over 270 feet tall and is one of the tallest parish church towers in England. The church is also home to a number of interesting artifacts and historical features, including a 14th-century font and a 17th-century pulpit.

Another popular attraction in Boston is the Maud Foster Windmill, which is one of the largest and best-preserved windmills in England. The windmill was built in 1819 and is still in operation today, producing flour that is sold in the local area. Visitors can take a tour of the windmill and learn about its history and operation, as well as enjoy the stunning views from the top of the tower.
