- Alford is a market town and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England, at the foot of the Lincolnshire Wolds, which form an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The population was recorded as 3,459 in the 2011 Census and estimated at 3,830 in 2021. It lies between the towns of Mablethorpe, Louth, Spilsby, and Skegness and acts as a local retail centre.
History
Alford is mentioned in the Domesday Book as Alforde. There was a settlement at Alford in pre-Norman times and it provided a place to cross the beck. This is intimated in the 'ford' part of its name.
The town occupied an important position historically and a charter was obtained by William Well, lord of the manor of Alford, in 1283 for a market to be held on Tuesdays and two annual fairs - one at Whitsun and the other in November. These remained active until 1939 with the bull fair continuing until 1972. A cattle market was established in 1911 but closed in 1987.
In 1810 a purpose built theatre was being used by Joseph Smedley at a cost of seven Guineas.
Most factories have closed in the last few years. The main sources of employment are newer businesses on the Safelincs industrial estate in West Street and the schools, nursing homes and smaller firms.
The former railway station
Beeching's Way Industrial Estate in the south-west of the town includes printing and manufacturing firms, a builders' merchant and a postal sorting office. It was built on the disused lines of the East Lincolnshire Railway from Grimsby to Boston, which closed on 5 October 1970, along with the local station. The naming of the industrial estate as Beeching's Way is a reminder of Richard Beeching, who masterminded the nationwide rail cutbacks under publicly owned British Railways at the behest of the Department of Transport.
The town's previous largest employer was C. S. Martin, later Finnveden Powertrain Ltd, which closed its doors in 2010. After redundancies, the factory now operates as Gnutti Carlo UK Ltd.
There is a daytime Monday-to-Friday bus service to Skegness, a single Wednesday service to Boston, and occasional local and school bus services open to other passengers.
Alford also has bus connections to Mablethorpe and Spilsby, and one service a day to and from Louth. The nearest railway station is in Thorpe Culvert.
The railway was opened in 1848 but was closed in 1970 with the demolition of the Grimsby to Boston line.

cześć Asia
Niedzielny spacer pustymi uliczkami Alford dał mi możliwość podziwiania w ciszy i skupupieniu mijanych po drodze zabytków architektury .Patrząc na nie cieszyć oczy i cofać się w czasie o kilka stuleci wstecz jednocześnie wyobrażając sobie jego budowe ,rozwój i życie jego mieszkańców 🤔
Dziś już tamtego świata nie ma ale jego historia została trwale zapisana i uwieczniona w murach zabytkowych budynkow .
Mistrzu Jarku dziękuje ❤ za kolejny cudowny ,spokojny i na wskroś realny spacer .Fakt to maleńkie schludne i bardzo czyste miasteczko ale jakże piękne .Nie mogłam odbyć tego spaceru wcześniej ,zrobiłam to dziś i jestem szczęśliwa ,że mogłam tam być.

Co to jest "parafia cywilna", nie anglikański kościół tylko protestancki, albo prywata z pastorem jak w USA, czy jeszcze coś innego? 🤔
To takie okreslenie w Anglii na kosciol anglikanski , bo sa tez koscioly np wojskowe (w koszarach)
I tu jest pastor jak w USA
