Boston’s great church, Tattershall Castle and Scrivelsby Hall feature among the steel engravings of Lincolnshire published by John Saunders at Lincoln in 1836. They accompanied descriptions and statistics of the county’s churches, houses, hospitals and market towns, including the Stamford and Rutland hospital. Saunders was the publisher rather than the engraver: related plates name Joseph Livesey as draughtsman and William Watkins as engraver. Roads, trees, water and figures set each landmark in its surroundings.
