Fulbeck

Fulbeck is a small village in Lincolnshire that lies between Grantham and Lincoln.

In 1986 Fulbeck had the dubious honour of being considered by the United Kingdom government body, NIREX, as one possible site for an underground deep storage facility for the country's nuclear waste. Geological investigations took place but plans for the facility were abandoned in 1987.

The village has an attractive old pub called the Hare and Hounds, and a church, St. Nicholas.

The church dates back to 1300 AD, and has an unusual 8 pinnacled bell tower, a window restored in about 1858 but kept in the original 1300 AD style, and a Perpendicular Gothic window.
