Have you been to Melton Mowbray? Market Days Tuesday & Saturday, Tuesday is the main street & cattle market. Home of the real Pork Pie. The beautiful St. Mary's Church. Where the term Painting the Town Red came from.

I wonder how often that Thatcher statue gets vandalized. I'm from Oklahoma in the US and my hometown has a creationist statue of children riding a stegosaurus. The plaques reads something like "ancient humans and dinosaurs once lived together here nearly 8,000 years ago"

It was vandalized several times and some of them videoed it, and were arrested later and charged, but I can tell you as someone who lives here and was born here in the early 80s, nobody cares about Thatcher and nobody really wanted that statue of her, although i can see why it was put there. She was born here but that's about it. Issac newton was too.

St Wulfram’s Church has the sixth highest spire in the country, and inside up a very narrow staircase is the Francis Trigge chained library, founded in 1598 and is claimed to be the first English public library (it still has original books chained to the bookcase with original chains from then). Walter Parker has his name on the memorial as he was a recipient of the Victoria Cross, as was Albert Ball who also studied at the Kings school

They also have tours up the tower and you can even walk around the edge at the base of the spire on heritage open days, in September I believe

The old building near the church with Arthur Storer's blue plaque is the original King's School, named after after Edward 6th. That is the school that Isaac Newton went to, and a few years later, me.

Oh excellent, did you go on to discover anything haha. Good story for the grandchildren though, “I went to the same school as Isaac Newton”. Thanks for your comment and support 🙏🏼

St Mary's Church in Long Sutton, Lincolnshire, England has Europe's tallest lead-covered wooden spire. The tower and spire was built by Cluniac monks in the 13th century. The church dates back to 1170, and an earlier church may have been on the site as early as the 9th century. The spire has been identified as a model for Salisbury Cathedral's spire.
