Spires and Steeples

Description
This walk runs from Lincoln to Sleaford through a number of historical villages and beautiful countryside. The name refers to the Spires of the churches and to the rural sport of Steeple chasing.
You will pass a series of interesting North Kesteven villages including Heighington, Scopwick, Digby and Ruskington. The scenery on the walk includes flat fens and heath, while there are also two lovely waterside sections along the River Whitham at the start and the River Slea into Sleaford at the end of the walk.
