Gainsborough is a town on the River Trent within the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.
The town is at the meeting point of the east-west A631 (which crosses the Trent on Trent Bridge at the only point between the M180 and the A57), the A156 (from the south to Torksey) and A159 (from Scunthorpe). Thorndike Way, Gainsborough's dual carriageway, intended to connect with the A15 at Caenby Corner, only extends eastward to the town boundary.
Gainsborough has a long-standing history of industry. The town was the manufacturing base of Marshall's, a major boiler manufacturer. The company occupied Britannia Ironworks, the biggest in Europe when built. It built steam engines, tanks, munitions and agricultural machinery until closure in the 1980s. The site has now been split among many different companies, Tesco on Beaumont Street and Dransfield's remodelling about nine acres. The remainder of the site is occupied by local companies. Tesco, on the corner of Trinity Street and Colville Terrace, demolished a large section of the works to create its large store around five years ago. Tesco now intends to replace their current store with a 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2) Tesco Extra store, on stilts with parking underneath. Dransfield is remodelling about nine acres (36,000 m²) of the site to include a shopping area and a new heritage museum. The site Marshalls Yard opened during Easter 2007, with additional shops opening after that. A Morrisons is located on Heapham Road South. A Co-op is located in the Lindsey Centre and at Morton by Gainsborough.
