Donington, once a market town, covers over 5835 acres and has a population of over 5,000. Lying 11 miles south of Boston and 10 north-west of Spalding it relies mainly on agriculture.
It is an attractive village with a long history. In Roman times, a road connected Wainfleet from the east coast through to Grantham. The road, Salters Way, was to carry salt from the wash to the Midlands. In the Doomsday Book, Donington is mentioned as Donnicture, a small hamlet with a Lord of the Manor and 16 salt works worth 20/-.
