The wide grass verges at Cawthorpe village, just off the main A15 near Bourne, provided excellent parking for travellers who stayed there often, making their Romany carts, vans and horses a familiar sight but after complaints from villagers Lincolnshire County Council has since landscaped both sides of the road by planting a variety of saplings that have now become young trees, making the verges totally inaccessible for camping.
