Bourne
Bourne is a market town and civil parish in the South Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. Bourne is located on the eastern slopes of the Kesteven Uplands and the western edge of the Lincolnshire Fens. The town is situated on a Roman road now referred to as King Street and was built around the natural springs, therefore the name 'Bourne', which comes from Anglo-Saxon meaning 'water' or 'stream'. It sits on the intersection of the A15 and the A151 roads. The civil parish includes the main township plus the hamlets of Cawthorpe, Dyke and Twenty. In former years, Austerby was percieved as a distinct settlement with its own shops and street plan, but is now an area of Bourne called The Austerby. The town's economy was driven by rural industries until the introduction of the railway opened up a market for bottled mineral water. Though it's nonetheless focused on agriculture and food preparation for supermarkets Bourne also features vital light engineering and tourism activities. The area includes a burgeoning housing market with significant new building work being undertaken in Bourne during the 2000s. The population taken at the 2001 census was around 14,000, increasing to 14,500 people in the 2011 census. Bourne Town Football Club plays in the United Counties Football League and the junior club runs teams for young people of all ages in local league competitions. Bourne Cricket Club is one of the most successful in the Lincolnshire ECB Premier League, having won the league 3 times since it began in 2000. The club normally offers players for the Lincolnshire Minor Counties team. These teams play home games at the Abbey Lawn, a recreation ground which is privately owned by the Bourne United Charities.
