Spalding is a historic market town in the heart of the South Holland district of Lincolnshire, renowned for its rich agricultural heritage and vibrant flower industry. Situated on the River Welland, Spalding has long been tied to horticulture, once known as the centre of the UK’s tulip-growing trade—a legacy still reflected in local events and its picturesque parks. The town’s landscape is defined by wide fenland vistas, scenic waterways, and a patchwork of fields, offering a quintessentially English rural setting.
