  • Building Stones of Lincolnshire
    Building stones of Greater Lincolnshire Lincolnshire Limestone at another famous Lincoln landmark © Lincolnshire County Council The rocks on which we stand The geology of Greater Lincolnshire (encompassing the county of Lincolnshire and the unitary authorities of North and North East Lincolnshire) comprises rocks and sediments of Late Triassic (the oldest rocks) in the west to Quaternary (the most recent sediments) in the east. In general, the rocks dip gently eastwards towards the North Sea coast forming a tilted sandwich. The area can be divided into several topographically and geologically distinct regions: in the west are the Trent Valley and the Isle of Axholme which are underlain by the Triassic rocks. To the east are two north- south ridges of higher ground forming the Lincoln Edge or Cliff (of Jurassic limestone) and the Lincolnshire Wolds (of Cretaceous chalk). The remainder of the area forms part of the low-lying drainage basin of the Humber Estuary (or Humber Levels) in the north while the southern limit of the Wolds is obscured by a thickening cover of sediments that forms the area of south Lincolnshire known as the fenland. Both the Humber Levels and the fenland have a series of Quaternary sediments.

  • A Portrayal of a Wood in Kesteven Richard G Jefferson
    BOURNE WOOD A portrayal of a wood in Kesteven Richard G Jefferson With contributions from David Evans, Fraser Bradbury, Andrew Powers and Robert Lamin Bourne, Lincolnshire 2016 Author Richard G Jefferson With contributions from David Evans, Fraser Bradbury, Andrew Powers and Robert Lamin Design by Engy Elboreini Booklet production supported by 3 BOURNE WOOD A portrayal of a wood in Kesteven Richard G Jefferson 4 INTRODUCTION Bourne Wood is situated immediately west of the town of Bourne in the District of South Kesteven in the County of Lincolnshire. It is contiguous with Pillar Wood immediately to the east and in the north incorporates Fox Wood and to the south, Auster Wood. The woodland complex (including Pillar Wood) covers an area of around 300 hectares (741 acres) but for the purposes of this booklet, the focus is on the Forestry Commission (FC) owned Bourne/Fox Wood which amounts to around 225 ha (556 acres). It overlooks the town and the reclaimed fens to its east. It lies at altitudes between 20 and 50 metres with the land generally rising in an east to west direction. The wood is owned by the FC who manage it for timber production, wildlife and informal recreation. A voluntary group, the Friends of Bourne Wood (‘The Friends’), organise an annual programme of guided walks and events in the wood and promote its amenity and educational value. 5 Autumn view © Terry Barnatt Terry © view Autumn 6 Contents HISTORY & ARCHAEOLOGY �� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � 8 GEOLOGY AND SOILS �� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �

  • THE GEOLOGICAL and GEOMORHOLOGICAL HISTORY of GRASBY and CLIXBY, LINCOLNSHIRE Introduction
    THE GEOLOGICAL AND GEOMORHOLOGICAL HISTORY OF GRASBY AND CLIXBY, LINCOLNSHIRE Introduction Grasby and Clixby were joined in 1934 to make a single, although still small, parish on the edge of the Wolds in north Lincolnshire. Their origins as English settlements can be traced back to the Domesday Book and before, with the “-by” suffix suggesting Viking influence. Fragments of Roman pottery found within the parish point to even earlier occupations of the current sites. Although no Iron Age or Neolithic artefacts have been found in the parish, numerous finds nearby show clearly that the Wolds and vales were visited and perhaps part settled as long ago as c. 6,000 years and it is believed that tracts of forest were being cleared for agriculture as far back as c. 4,500 years ago. Hominoids are now known to have occupied parts of Britain from as long ago as 700,000 years, coming and going as the land bridge between here and the rest of Europe emerged and submerged as the sea level fluctuated with the formation and melting of ice sheets, and disappearing completely during major ice advances. The recent history of Homo sapiens within Britain, however, dates back a mere c. 12,000 years to when the last ice finally disappeared from these shores.
