Off we go on the Iron Horse to sleepy Sleaford for a couple of days. This is a typical market own in Lincolnshire so, as you may expect, it's full of historic buildings. The Roman's had a garrison here a few generations ago which sort of give you some idea of the depth of that history.
St Deny's is the parish curch and it's a gem! The current curate (Jeremy Cullimore) is a delight to talk to and has a personal history which shows that some clerics are a bit more than God Bothering wind bags. Anyone who has been a soldier in the Boznian War somehow has a bit more than theoretical idea about the importance spirituality in a person's life. Back to the kirk ...
It dates from round 1080 so you can guess it's well worth a visit even by the most hardened heathen.
The old Bass Maltings is a huge series of buildings; now disused. This really impressive industrial structure is the subject of heated debate - someone wants to "develope" the site. I gather Cousin Charles of the Ears has waded into the fight which could bring some interest to the debate.
