Caistor sits on the north-western edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, positioned where the high ground of the escarpment meets the flatter lands of the Ancholme Valley. It is an old Roman town, and you can still trace the fragments of the original bastions and wall behind the parish church of St Peter and St Paul. The layout of the town is defined by its steep hills and a central marketplace, which serves as a hub for the surrounding smaller villages. Geographically, it is well-placed for those who need to reach bigger centres; the A46 runs right past, making for a straightforward drive to Lincoln or Grimsby, while Market Rasen is just a few miles south. It’s a practical place to live, with a strong sense of community built around the local schools and the Arts and Heritage Centre. Because it’s right on the Viking Way, it’s a natural starting point for walks into the Wolds, though you have to be prepared for the sharp incline of the hills that surround the town.
