Boston, once a major seaport, and the town still reflects this in its historic buildings such as the Boston Stump, the 272 foot tower of the 14th century St Botolph's church, used as a navigation aid.
The town declined as trade with America increased and today the harbour is partially silted up.
All around the town the landscape is very flat.
