Attractions in Grantham

Newest Review: ... such as Margrets house, the statues in the town centre, various walks on the outskirts etc. There is also a selection of shops here but I wouldnt reley on getting anything in your size or reley on getting what you want here as all the shops seem to be shutting down after a very short period of time! We have all the basic shops such as wilkinsons, woolworths and WHSmiths but nothing worth shouting about really. Its best to go to the closest cities such as Lincoln or Nottingham whcih asre easy to get to by train or bus. We have a good selection of supermarkets however, boasting a 24 Hour Asda, a morrisons, Sainsburies, aldi, lidl, Tesco Expr... more

People that live in this town say that there is nothing to do and in a way there isnt, not for young people. No wonder the crime rate is getting quite high. Either way, Grantham is a very historical town with the likes of Margret Thatcher and Issac Newton both coming from/living in Grantham. There are lots of things to visit if you are interested in history such as Margrets house, the statues in the town centre, various walks on the outskirts etc. There is also a selection of shops here but I wouldnt reley on getting anything in your size or reley on getting what you want here as all the shops seem to be shutting down after a very short ...

Grantham isn't a bad place to live, there are definatley worse! It has improved greatly over the last few years with the addition of new shops dotted around the centre of town. We now have Next, Tk Maxx, Matalan, Home bargains, Homebase, ASDA, a Fun farm for the children amongst the other usual shops. There is a cinema (that isn't up to much I must admit), bowling alley, lots of restaurants that offer different cuisines and a moutain of pubs & clubs to entertain yourselves in the evenings. The road network isn't bad although schoool run times and rush hours it can take a good 45 minutes to cross town which is a nightmare. We're situated in between the ... Read the complete review

Grantham is a small market town in Lincolnshire, and the birthplace of Isaac Newton, and Margaret Thatcher. In the town you are fairly limited as to what there is to do. It has few shops, as with ASDA coming to town ten years ago, most of them have closed, and any new ones that dare try to open end up going the same way. You could go to the museum, which is free to enter, can pass half an hour of your time, and in the evening you can go bowling, or to the local two screen cinema, or you can go drinking in one of granthams 35 or more pubs. If you have transport there is more available for you. There are some nice walks around the outskirts of the area, or ... Read the complete review
