For administrative purposes parish affairs are handled by the combined ''Colsterworth District parishes council''. ==Geography== The only major road is the A151 Buckminster road which crosses the parish from west to east. The northern boundary lies some way north of, and very roughly parallel to this road. The parish extends a considerable distance to the west of the villages, as far as the Lincolnshire-Leicestershire border, which forms the western edge. Out here all is farmland, over former Ironstone workings. The eastern extent reaches not quite as far as the A1 because the River Witham forms the boundary. The South is delineated by nothing more substantial than the ancient fieldlines dividing the parish from North Witham. The land to the east, between Stainby and Gunby, is gently undulating around 125m above sae level. To the west, the contours are only about 10m higher. There is little woodland, is perhaps the largest. Stainby and Gunby are each founded around minor streams that flow from west to east into the River Witham, flowing north toward Colsterworth. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gunby and Stainby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
