Stamford Attractions |
| |
The historic coaching town of Stamford features extensive Medieval and Georgian architecture, faced with local stone. Located on the River Welland in the far south of Lincolnshire, bordering Cambridgeshire & Rutland, it lies approximately 90 miles North of London, & presents a beautiful introduction to the area. During the 13th century, Stamford was one of the ten largest towns in England, it held parliament and had its own university. Inviting immediate interest are the 15th century almshouses on Broad Street, now Brownes Hospital museum, and whilst strolling the numerous medieval patterned streets and byways there is much to explore. . The BBC’s Middlemarch was shot chiefly in Barn Hill, St. George’s Square and St. Mary’s Street.
The impressive estate of Burghley House, the renowned Elizabethan mansion, was a location for the filming of “Pride & Prejudice”, and Henry James’s “The Golden Bowl”. Aside from the rich contents of the house, it features the delightful “Garden of Surprises” and the fascinating Sculpture Gardens. The splendour of Burghley also serves as a magnificent Wedding venue, and during the summer months Tolethorpe Open Air Theatre brings a host of visitors to the Stamford Shakespeare Festival. The Nene Valley Railway, home to “Thomas” named after the famous Tank Engine, is also established as a regular location for TV & Film productions. It has 7.5 miles of track, with trips available on the large collection of engines and rolling stock. Rail enthusiasts will also enjoy the impressive sight of Harringworth Viaduct, with its’ 82 brick arches spanning the Welland Valley. Ancient and imposing Cathedrals and churces abound, the principle ones being Peterborough Cathedral together with the numerous churches of Stamford and surrounding villages. For those happy to venture further afield, Lincoln and Ely are about an hours drive. |
