St. Wulfram's Church

Reviewed By kensmoon - Lincoln, United Kingdom

A beautiful church taking pride of place in the city centre with its tall, elegant spire catching the eye for miles around. I was pleased to discover it was open and spent a while appreciating the superb architecture, including the wonderful stained glass windows, the font and the lovely blue ceiling in the chancel.

Wyndham Park Grantham

Wyndham Park in is one of the very best in Britain - and that's official! The park's town centre location next to Grantham's Riverside Walk means it's hugely popular with visitors and local alike. It's South Kesteven District Council's aim to provide a park which is not only welcoming but safe, offering a superb range of activities and experiences to suit all ages. We have been a "Green Flag" park since 2012. This is a UK-wide mark of excellence for parks and gardens and winning the award means Wyndham Park is recognised as being amongst the best in the country. Grantham's Wyndham Park Forum and South Kesteven District Council have received support from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) and the Big Lottery Fund. The development funding is for a project aimed at restoring the park to its former glory as a First World War memorial park and be one of the district's finest assets.

I go there regularly. The playground is excellent for kids. With gym outside and tennis court they are great options to spend a few hours. Not far tea room where you can have tea,coffee, on summer months ice cream.

You could walk right past the Lord Harrowby and not realise, it's so unassuming. If you do go in, even if it's your first time, you'll be welcomed like you're a regular. Good selection of real ale(which changes every week) which is always in tip top condition thanks to the dedication of the Landlord and Landlady. Roaring fire in the winter. Word of caution: Darts and cribbage is taken very seriously in the Lord Harrowby (hence impressive collection of silverware)so woe betide anyone who decides to be excessively loud on match nights.
