There are eight residential properties in Lolham, which include Lolham Hall, a Grade II listed building. The main London-to-Edinburgh railway (the East Coast Main Line) runs to the west of Lolham.
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. John Clare described the crossings in his poem called "The Flood":
On Lolham Brigs in wild and lonely moodI've seen the winter floods their gambols playThrough each old arch that trembled while I stoodBent o'er its wall to watch the dashing spray.[1]
