'place in lincolnshire' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'unrest cop provoked around hard' is the wordplay.
'provoked' indicates an anagram.
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'hard' becomes 'h' (abbreviation used in pencil classifications).
'unrest'+'cop'='unrestcop'
'unrestcop' with letters rearranged gives 'scuntorpe'.
'scuntorpe' enclosing 'h' is 'SCUNTHORPE'.
