Aubourn
Aubourn ("Stream where the Alders grow") is a small village just east of the A46, in between Lincoln and Newark, England, in the county of Lincolnshire, the district of North Kesteven and the civil parish of Aubourn and Haddington.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lgbce.org.uk/__documents/lgbce/research/parish-orders-from-x-drive/amendment-no.-1-order-1992.pdf ) Note the later adoption of ''and'' rather than ''with'' in the first parish name〕 It has a one way system that is unusual for a small countryside village, and a public house called "The Royal Oak". ==Geography== The village sits in the valley formed by the River Witham as it winds eastwards to The Wash, which provides a risk of flooding. Before the Second World War, the whole area was allowed to flood during the winter if the river rose too high. After the war, 2.5 m (8 ft) high flood banks were built along each side, reducing the annual flooding but making floods more likely to be catastrophic, especially as large numbers of houses have now been built up to the flood banks.
