Medlam Lincolnshire Map

About Medlam

Medlam, a quiet English settlement, breathes the air of the Lincolnshire fens. It lies 12.2 km north of Boston (from Boston: bearing 358°T, OS grid TF 317 561), and is situated south-south-east of New Bolingbroke village. The land around Medlam, a flat expanse often touched by the pale, wide sky of the East Midlands, suggests a long history of cultivation, where fields stretch like rumpled linen under the sun. Here, the channels of water, remnants of ancient drainage works, gleam softly, reflecting the heavens and whispering of journeys made by boat in times past. The houses of Medlam, often built of brick that has weathered to a warm, muted hue, seem to hunker down against the persistent breeze, their gardens a riot of colour when the season allows. The quietude of Medlam is not an emptiness, but a fullness of the natural world, a place where the sounds of birdsong and wind through the grass are the dominant music.
