The Fortescue Arms overlooks the Market Place in Tattershall, the sign over the door displaying the coat of arms of Earl Fortescue. The Fortescue family acquired Tattershall Castle in 1693 but never lived here - in fact they presided over a long period of decline and abandonment. In the end the Hon Hugh Fortescue sold the castle in 1910 which led to its purchase by Lord Curzon the following year and its eventual restoration.
