Louth
Louth is a market town and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of the English county of Lincolnshire. It is situated at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds, where they link the Lincolnshire Marsh. The town is on the eastern side of a canyon sculpted into the Wolds that forms the Hubbard's Hills, which is an area that was formed from a glacial overspill in the last glacial period. The River Lud moves through this canyon before it continues to run through the town. Marked with a plaque on the north side of the street on which it passes, the Greenwich Meridian moves through the town. In accordance with the 2001 Census, Louth has a permanent population of around 15930. Settlements are thought to have been on the area since the Paleolithic era, which is supported by such archaeological proof as 3 handaxes discovered on the wolds dating from between 424000 and 191000 years ago. Archaeological discoveries have also included arrowheads believed to have been made in the Bronze Age. Louth is acknowledged primarily for its vast variety of independent merchants, with around 70 per cent of businesses in the town being independently owned in 2013. Many different enduring businesses demonstrate the established selling history of the town, for instance the department store 'Eve and Ranshaw', founded in 1781, 'Dales and Sons' poulterers, open since 1896, and the century old butchers 'Lakings of Louth'. It is also famous for its specialist grocers, regional butchers and 'The Cheese Shop', which earned national acknowledgment in 'The Guardian'. This retailing reputation has actually been consolidated by being identified as 'Britain's favourite market town' in 2012 by the BBC's 'Countryfile' television programme.
