Gainsborough is a market town and river port located where the east-west A631 meets the A156 south for Torksey and the A159 north for Scunthorpe. One of the most magnificent mediaeval buildings in England is Gainsborough Old Hall, where Kings Richard III and Henry VIII dined and John Wesley preached. The view from the tower stretches across the wonderful Trent Valley, almost reaching the River Humber. When strolling down by the River Trent, George Eliot found the inspiration for 'The Mill on the Floss' and Gainsborough's lovely views from the riverside houses and flats still inspire today.
