Lolham is located to the west of Maxey and to the south of West Deeping and is surrounded by the River Welland and Maxey Cut.
The Roman road now called King Street crossed the Welland floodplain here.
Lolham is known for its nine bridges that run north across two railway crossings from Helpston to West Deeping.
Lolham Bridges is/are a Grade II* listed building.
[2] John Clare described the crossings in his poem called "The Flood": On Lolham Brigs in wild and lonely mood I've seen the winter floods their gambols play Through each old arch that trembled while I stood Bent o'er its wall to watch the dashing spray.
