A picture of Gainsborough

view from Foxby Hill, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, looking west across the River Trent. This is where the Royalists fled to in panic after their defeat at the Battle of Gainsborough in 1643, and where their leader Cavendish was knocked from his horse and killed with a sword thrust to his chest by Cromwell\'s captain-lieutenant Berry. In the distance is West Burton Power Station.
