Serving, supporting and protecting our local community
The Community Assembly of Gainsborough is located in the county of Lincolnshire in the East Midlands and Yorkshire and the Humber regions of England.
The place-name Gainsborough first appears in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle of 1013 as Gegnesburh and Gæignesburh. In the Domesday Book of 1086, it appears as Gainesburg: Gegn's fortified place. It was one of the capital cities of Mercia in the Anglo-Saxon period that preceded Danish rule.
Its choice by the Vikings as an administrative centre was influenced by its proximity to the Danish stronghold at Torksey. In 868 King Alfred married Ealhswith (Ealswitha), daughter of Æthelred Mucel, chief of the Gaini, whence the town gets its name.
Community Assemblies are made up of residents concerned about a lack of democratic process at a local and national level, dedicated to preserving and asserting our inalienable rights and obligations to ourselves, the Earth and future generations.
