The B1393 was a short link road in Boston town centre.
The road started on the B1183 Horncastle Road and headed southwest along Norfolk Street. After crossing the Grand Sluice over the River Witham and going over the railway line at a level crossing the road continued along Argyle Street before bearing left into Brothertoft Road. It ended at the far end of the road on Sleaford Road, originally the A154 and numbered A52 since 1951.
Unclassified in 1922, the B1393 came into existence in the mid-1920s as an alternative route across town. However, in the 1970s the road was upgraded to Class I status and is now numbered A1137.
