Gainsborough is a town in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. Gainsborough is situated 18 miles north-west from the city and county town of Lincoln, and on the River Trent. At one time it served as an important port with trade downstream to Hull, and was the most inland port in England, being more than 55 miles (90 km) from the North Sea.
The Lindsey Survey of 1115-18 records that Gainsborough was then held by Nele d’Aubigny (known as Nigel the Black). He was the forebear of the Mowbray family, and the Mowbray interest in Gainsborough continued until at least the end of the 14th Century. Thomas Burgh acquired the manor of Gainsborough in 1455. He built Gainsborough Old Hall between 1460 and 1480, a large, 15th-century, timber-framed medieval strong house, and one of the best-preserved manor houses in Britain.
Gainsborough became significant as part of a route around Newark by way of Lincoln and the line of the modern A15 road. It was in the Royalists' interests to obstruct this, which gave rise to the battles of Gainsborough and Winceby. Parliament captured Gainsborough in the battle on 20 July but was immediately besieged by a large Royalist army and forced to surrender after three days.
The town is at the meeting point of the east-west A631 (which crosses the Trent on Trent Bridge at the only point between the M180 and the A57), the A156 (from the south to Torksey) and A159 (from Scunthorpe). Thorndike Way, Gainsborough's dual carriageway, intended to connect with the A15 at Caenby Corner, only extends eastward to the town boundary, and is named after the actress Dame Sybil Thorndike (born in the town in 1885). The former A631 through the town is now the B1433.
Beside Riverside Walk are the Whitton's Mill flats, which won the Royal Town Planning Institute award for the East Midlands. Marshall's Yard also received an award for regeneration. West Lindsey District Council used to have their main offices at the Guildhall on Lord Street, but in January 2008. Silver Street is home to many of Gainsborough's shops. Elswitha Hall is the birthplace of Halford John Mackinder, founder of the Geographical Association.
A large water tower stands on Heapham Road, built in 1897 to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria.
The two respective railway stations in Gainsborough are Gainsborough Central on Spring Gardens near the town centre (for the Grimsby line) and Lea Road (for Lincoln) on Lea Road (A156) to the south of the town. At the equivalent West Trent Junction, on the other side of the river in Nottinghamshire, the lines from Doncaster and Sheffield meet. Gainsborough is famed as Britain’s most inland port. It has had a long history of river shipping trade.

Gainsborough's Morning Walk | Talks for All| | National Gallery
This is part of our 'Talks for All' series. Christine Riding, the Head of the Curatorial Department, discusses Gainsborough's 1785 painting, 'Mr. and Mrs. William Hallett', also known as 'The Morning Walk'.
William Hallett and Elizabeth Stephen were both aged 21 and due to be married in the summer of 1785, shortly after the painting was completed. Elizabeth is in a dress of ivory silk - perhaps her wedding dress - caught at the waist with a black silk band.

Exploring Gainsborough old hall
Exploring Gainsborough old hall..the Gainsborough old hall is in the north west corner of lincolnshire.the grait Gainsborough old hall is one of the most impressive and preserved medieval manor houses in England. Built by the noble burghs.the Old hall has been owned.as well as lived in.by just one family.the Hickman's who arrived in Gainsborough in 1596. With muted reds of warm Tudor brickwork set against romantic black and white timber Framing. This magnificent old hall of Gainsborough has stood watching over the town and the River Trent for more than five centuries. for more than two centres at least. Sightings have been made of a ghostly apparition walking along the corridors towards the north end of the east range. The female figure all dressed in grey.Having reached the leaded lights then turns to disappear through the doorway leading towards the tower . Some say that she is the daughter of one of the lord burghs. who pined to death having been forbidden to marry the man she loved. Others believe the female ghost is the Queen Catherine Howard. I highly recommend visiting this hall it is a great feature of Lincolnshire

Accession no. 715.
Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, UK. 1959.
A considerable crowd gathers to watch as the Carnival Queen arrives in a veteran car to be greeted by various civic officials, a Charlie Chaplin lookalike and a line of costumed chorus girls. More razzamatazz than a couple of petrol pumps might seem to warrant, but an unusual item of more than local interest. The pumps themselves, though the latest thing in their day, now seem very dated.
