  This is one of the Pimlico Guides , which looks at the second largest county in England, Lincolnshire. However, Lincolnshire is possibly one of the least appreciated, despite its impressive sights. From the Humber in the north to the Wash in the south, many miles of little-travelled roads and unfrequented lanes lead the discerning traveller to lonely marshland or empty fen, to rolling wolds or undulating cliffs. In the middle is Lincoln - the three towers of the Cathedral perched upon its hill. Towns such as Stamford and Louth are covered in the guide, as well as various villages and houses. This guide provides an introduction to this little-known county and covers its architecture, topography, folklore and archaeology.
