Whether it’s the links to stately homes, history, or even science and politics, you won’t be short on things to do in Grantham – or learn! There isn’t a museum as such, but it’s worth checking out North Parade for the birthplace of Margaret Thatcher. You might have heard of Isaac Newton? Also born here – and where that famous apple drop started the theory of gravity. Visit Woolsthorpe Manor to unpack the full story. Belton House is a gem. Think 17th-century architecture and formal gardens, set next to a deer park. It’s simply perfect for a family day out in Grantham.
