Boston, Port town in Lincolnshire, England.
Located on the River Witham, Boston extends across flat reclaimed marshlands with St Botolph's Church tower visible throughout the surrounding countryside.
During the 13th century, Boston developed as a major port within the Hanseatic League, facilitating trade of wool, wine, leather, and other goods.
The May Fair, established in 1125, continues to celebrate market traditions in Boston's central streets through various commercial and entertainment activities.
The town functions as an agricultural center with regular markets, serving the surrounding farming communities and providing essential services to local residents.
St Botolph's Church tower, measuring 272.5 feet in height, stands as the tallest parish church tower in England without including its spire.
