Schools in Market Rasen
The racecourse is the town's most distinctive landmark.
A small market town of around four thousand with its own racecourse on the Wolds edge, Market Rasen sits in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire where the River Rase crosses the A46, the main road between Lincoln and Grimsby. Market Rasen station connects to Lincoln in roughly forty minutes on the Grimsby line. The town's own schools draw families from villages across West Lindsey, and Osgodby is among the most sought-after settings nearby for those weighing primary catchments. North Kelsey and Caistor extend the school-catchment search for families prepared to look further into the wolds.
