Boston stump

This shot was taken some miles from the town of Boston but the church tower is clearly visible. The church is one of the largest parish churches in England, and it has the fourteenth highest church tower in England. The tower is approximately 272 feet (83 m) high. It can be seen for miles around, its prominence accentuated by the flat surrounding countryside of the fens. On a clear day, it can be seen from East Anglia on the other side of The Wash. The nickname, The Stump or Boston Stump, is often used affectionately as a reference to the whole church building or for the parish community housed by it. The formal name is Saint Botolph's Parochial Church of Boston.
