With regard to health, this is mainly due to the non-release of health information for a small area such as Hemswell Cliff that could lead to possible identification of individuals. Test results of pupils by residency are also not available for publication at such a low level of geography for similar reasons. Introduction he parish of Hemswell Cliff is located in the district of West Lindsey, about 12 miles north of T Lincoln, just off the A15, and is a unique mix of industrial, agricultural, residential and retail properties. The parish was formed when the former RAF Hemswell was closed and most of the property changed to private ownership. The former base buildings now house one of the largest antique centres in Europe and other businesses ranging from grain storage and testing facilities to second hand book shops and a garden centre. On Sundays the site hosts a huge open market and carboot sale. © Crown copyright. All rights reserved.
