The town of Stamford sits on the River Welland and the Great North Road on the border of four English counties (Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire and Rutland). The town is best known for its core of 17th and 18th century stone buildings, older timber-framed buildings and five medieval parish churches.
