Gainsborough is a town within the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.

One of the best preserved manor houses in Britain, Gainsborough Old Hall is a large 15th century timber-framed medieval strong house. Sir Thomas Burgh built it between 1460 and 1480. It boasts a magnificent Great Hall and strong brick tower. King Richard III in 1483 and King Henry VIII in 1541 both stayed at the Old Hall.

The town is at the meeting point of the east-west A631 (which crosses the Trent 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 which was intended to connect with the A15 at Caenby Corner currently only extends eastward to the town boundary. The town's main attractions are Gainsborough Old Hall, Gainsborough Castle and West Lindsey Leisure Centre on The Avenue.

Gainsborough has a long-standing history with industry. The town was the manufacturing base of Marshall's, a major boiler manufacturer. The company occupied Britannia Works, the biggest in Europe when built. The site has now been split among many different companies, Tesco on Beaumont Street and Dransfield. 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 are now to replace their current store with a 100,000 sq ft Tesco Extra store, on stilts with parking underneath. Dransfield is in the process of remodelling about nine acres (36,000 m²) of the site to include a shopping area and a new heritage museum. The site, name Marshalls Yard, opened during Easter 2007 and shops are continuing to open for the remainder of the year. There is a Morrisons on Heapham Road South, and a Co-op in the Lindsey Centre in the town centre and at Morton by Gainsborough.

Gainsborough is also famed as Britain’s most inland port and so has a long history with river trade — the town’s Trent Bridge prevents larger coastal boats from going beyond it and so many have to offload their goods at the town. There is currently one wharf in the town — mainly an importer of wood.

The town has one of the top state schools in the country, Queen Elizabeth High School (selective state grammar school from 11-18) on Morton Terrace (A159) next to the railway line, whilst the Castle Hills Community Arts College, on The Avenue next to the leisure centre and the other side of the railway, recently achieved the status of performing arts college for the second time. The Middlefield School of Technology is on Middlefield Lane, next to Thorndike Way. The Castle Hills school is consistently one of the lowest performing at GCSE in Lincolnshire, and England.

The town has links with the John Leggott Sixth Form College in Scunthorpe, which enrols many international students. Gainsborough College on Acland Street focuses on vocational education.
