Inns on the Edge: Friday 18th February

Lincolnshire County Council is launching a new project Inns on the Edge, where we will be celebrating the heritage of pubs along the much-loved Lincolnshire Coast.

Project Officer Marc Knighton will be visiting pubs from Boston to Grimsby to uncover their stories and history, whilst making a record of their current use and condition. Marc will also be speaking to landlords and locals to encourage them to record their memories of these historic buildings, which are rich in social history, that may have never been written down.

Keep up to date by following Marc's blog on our news feed below.

How can you get involved?

You can help by sharing your memories, stories and old and recent photographs relating to public houses and their artefacts along the coast. You can do this by commenting on posts themselves and on our stories page. We want to know more about why these buildings matter to communities to help preserve them for the future.

Everything you share will be read and recorded, and there will also be the chance for it to feature in a pub heritage exhibition to be held at the North Sea Observatory in 2022, and then available to tour local venues along the coast.

We will also be running pub heritage workshops to help communities discover the history of their 'local'.

Share your memories and photos online through the Let’s Talk Lincolnshire website at www.letstalk.lincolnshire.gov.uk/inns-on-the-edge.
