The B1205 is a rural B-road in north Lincolnshire, providing part of an alternative route between Gainsborough and Grimsby. Its route has remained unaltered since 1922.
We start on the A159 on the northern edge of Blyton, a few miles north of Gainsborough. The route heads east, crossing a railway line at a level crossing after a few miles, then passing to the south of Kirton-in-Lindsey; three B-roads connect this village to the B1205.
Shortly afterwards our road meets the A15. We turn right to follow the A-road for less than 400 hundred yards before leaving it at a left turn to continue our eastward run. The B1205 goes through Waddingham, then crosses the River Ancholme. After zigzagging through South Kelsey the route intersects the B1434 and goes over another level crossing before ending on the A46 at Nettleton, just to the south of Caistor.
