The Stump and candle was previously known as ‘Martha’s Vineyard’ and ‘Rum Puncheon’. There is a blue plaque, which indicates the birthplace of John Foxe (1517-1578) author of The Book of Martyrs. I believe it is called the Stump and Candle as you can see the lantern of Boston Stump above the rooftop.

Is a 15th century building and Former merchants House. It wasn’t always where it is now see here: http://www.sitelines.co.uk/pdfs/23005.pdf

Masonic Lodge was designed around a plain brick building and the Portico design is based upon the Temple of Dandour in Nubia. It was designed by G Handford and was built in 1860 –1863.

This used to be part of the Lincolnshire River Authority's offices. The part on the right was the home of Thomas Broughton who was the mayor in 1828 and 1834. This is now a nursing and residentall home.

This was home to a Merchant family. They dominated Boston politics during the late Georgian period. Their decendants owned the property from 1726-1936. It was then acquired by Boston Preservation Trust. When Mr Thomas Fydells' wife passed away in 1813 their nephew Henry Rogers who was the town clerk occupied it. Today it is used as a college and you can also hold your wedding here.

Built 1925-7

The pilgrim fathers first attempted to escape religious persecution and tried to flee to Holland. They were arrested and put in cells at Boston Guildhall. The cells and courtroom have been preserved and the Guildhall is now a museum.
