Fydell House was bought by Richard Fydell in 1733, and was owned by members of the family in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Seen here is a rear view across the formal gardens. The armillary sphere in the foreground is part of a tribute to Joseph Banks – a frequent visitor to the house.

Fydell House is thought to have been built in 1702-03 to a design by architect William Sands, who was responsible for the garden of Ayscoughfee Hall in Spalding.

The Jackson family were the original owners of the house and it was probably built for Mrs Lennox Jackson, who was then an elderly widow living with her family.

In 1733, Richard Fydell (1710-80), a worker in the wine trade, bought the house from Richard Browne. Richard went on to build a very successful business, which his son Thomas (1740-1812) continued.

Richard and Thomas between them were mayors of Boston six times. They also represented Boston in five parliaments. Thomas’s own son, Thomas Junior (1773 – 1814) also represented Boston at parliament.

This house is built at the western end of the commercial maltings building.

Like many of the more substantial properties it is approached up a short flight of stone steps, perhaps an advisable precaution in a low-lying landscape with a high water table.

Built by John Parkinson in 1823, The Crescent is the centrepiece of his new ‘town’.

It consists of this six bay central section of two-and-a-half storeys with two-storey wings continuing the curve for a further six bays on either side.

This provided a higher standard of housing than the small terraced houses which align the main road to the south.
