Daffodils on a bright Spring day light up the roadside here near Timberland, a village in Lincolnshire, England.

Set amongst a patchwork of farmers fields in wetlands known as Fen, this little village is just south of the river Wellard and near to the village of Martin. The illustrated signpost with the town name has a plaque above showing the nearby Car Dyke waterway which was once navigable but later drained by small canals to make the surrounding land suitable for farm use.

Genealogical records began around the 17th century showing that Timberland was a medieval village, possibly a small market town. Parish records at St Andrews church date back even further to 1563.

Today the village hall is the center of activities. There's a primary and middle school for the children. The Anglican church of St Andrews seats around 200 visitors and there's a Wesleyan Methodist chapel in the village too. There are lots of small guest houses and country pubs in the surrounding areas, great for leisurely exploring the Lincolnshire countryside.

On the B1191, connect to the A15 north to Lincoln. Timberland is 128 miles north of London with frequent train services and nearby motorway.
