OLD PICS REQUIRED

Hi all who read this... I have lived in Bratoft now in this very old cottage since 1992. I am very interested in any info about this cottage, Great Steeping Cottage, or Steeping Cottage as it was once called. The property was empty when we moved here. We have been told that the original part of which was a one up & one down is around 200 years old. I am looking for old pics, maybe any old pics previous to 1980. The older the better but anything would be great to have. And also any history... This cottage is also very haunted and again history may shed some light on these happenings. Anyone that may have lived here previous to 1992, we would love to hear from you... I can be reached via e mail: andy_guy_uk@yahoo.com and all mails will be answered.. Thanks for your time and I hope someone will read this from older times..

Memories of A Child

I remember Eastville as a child growing up, we used to visit and stay with my nan (Linda Howard) every bank holiday. It was very quiet and peaceful. We had some lovely times, Grandad (John Howard) was the local smithy. Most times some of us would walk what dad called the 5 mile walk from the corner by the pub (the Wheatsheaf), and I remember the nights when the chip shop opened, it was heaven, they were scrummy, we (my brothers and sisters) used to like the batter scraps. My nan lived in one of the council houses across from the grain mill, we also used to go to the shop - Cooks general stores. There might be some families living there that still remember our family, mainly because there were 11 of us kids, Mom and Dad were Barbara and Alf. One of the other things was the home grown veggies and fruit that Nan would have growing in the back garden, Mom and Dad would always come away... Read more

Calceby ... my Soul Mate.

Calceby... I came to live here in 1947, not a country girl by birth, having lived in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire, for the first fourteen years of my life. This hamlet was to become my home for the next three years, isolated and  buried in the heart of the wolds. I came to know every part of the landscape, and walking very soon became my hobby.  My interest in history became larger than life because here I was surrounded with evidence  of a long forgotten past.
The ruined St Andrews Church on the top of the hill was my playground, and most days I would spend my time exploring every nook and cranny, and under the turf surrounding the walls lay the inhabitants, what a wealth of stories they could have told me of the lives and deaths of this small and unobtrusive village.

The Black Death was soon to come and desolate the population, leaving it
ruined and abandoned. The once village now became a hamlet, and... Read more

USAF at East Kirkby

I was with the USAF at RAF Sturgate and was transferred to East Kirkby in Mar 1957. I worked in the personnel office and lived in the barracks that was located where the turkey farm is now. Many happy memories...the Red Lion was known as Fred's pub. After I got married to a girl from Grimsby, I lived for a while with with my wife in a small flat in the Grange at Miningsby. The Grange was owned by a guy named Morris (Maurice?) who had a bloke named George who worked for him. I bought George a pair of Levi jeans from the BX once and was he thilled. Left there in 1958 as it was closing.

This isn't a memory, but I would like to hear about other people's memories as to the Woolpack at Wainfleet. I have been the landlady of this hotel for the last 7 months and would like to know some history about the premises prior to the 1950s - can anyone help?
