St Botolph's Church, Boston
St Botolph's Church is a parish church in the Church of England in Boston, Lincolnshire. It is notable for its extraordinarily tall tower, known as the "Boston Stump".
==Background==
The church is one of the largest parish churches in England and has one of tallest Medieval towers in England. The tower is approximately high. It can be seen for miles around, its prominence accentuated by the flat surrounding countryside known as The Fens. On a clear day, it can be seen from East Anglia on the other side of The Wash. The nickname, The Stump or Boston Stump, is often used affectionately as a reference to the whole church building or for the parish community housed by it. The formal name is Saint Botolph's Parochial Church of Boston.
The name "Boston" is thought to have evolved from "Botolph's Town".〔
