Local Knowledge
Drainage In Horncastle: What We Know
A flood storage reservoir on the River Bain, completed in 2017, protects 169 properties in Horncastle.
During Storm Babet up to 80 properties flooded after a mechanical fault reduced the reservoir's storage, according to Lincolnshire County Council.
Horncastle lies where the Rivers Bain and Waring meet, on Kimmeridge Clay mudstone overlain by river alluvium of clay, sand, silt and gravel and, in places, glacial till, according to Lincolnshire County Council's Extensive Urban Survey. Ground this mixed can vary from one garden to the next, which matters when siting a soakaway or new drain run.
Horncastle grew quickly in the early 19th century after its canal opened and the fields were enclosed. Foundry Street was laid out in the 1830s with small terraced houses for workers, and Queen Street was built at the same time for managers. The population peaked at 5,017 in 1851, and 20th-century housing later spread out on all sides of the town.
