__NOTOC__ Torksey is a village in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated on the A156 road, south from Gainsborough and north-west from the city of Lincoln, and on the eastern bank of the River Trent. It is notable for Torksey Castle and Torksey Viaduct. ==History== In the ''Domesday Book'' Torksey is listed as a town. The Grade II * listed railway viaduct over the Trent remains but it is no longer in use. The now Grade I listed 16th-century Torksey Castle was destroyed in August 1645 during the English Civil War; its remains are on the riverside of the bank which separates it from dry land. Both are on the Buildings at Risk Register. The Roman Foss Dyke canal, modified by later refurbishments, joins the tidal River Trent by way of a series of lock-gates. 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「Torksey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
