Aubourn is a small '0' shaped village just east of the A46, in between Lincoln, Lincolnshire and Newark-on-Trent, England. It has an odd one way system (odd for a small village in a countryside location), a rather nice pub called 'The Royal Oak', an extremely old church, Aubourn Hall Church (built around 1200 AD), and a Hall. The village sits in the valley formed by the River Witham as it wends southwards to the Wash, hence a prime candidate for flooding. In pre World War II days the whole area was allowed to flood during the winter if the river got too high. After the War, eight foot high flood banks were built along each side, reducing the annual flooding but making a flood (should it happens) likely to be more catastrophic, especially as large numbers of houses have now been built right up to the flood banks. * *[http://groups.msn.com/EnglishChurchPhotographs/lincolnshirechurches.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=269 Aubourn Hall Church]
