I used to walk round the golf course in the... [more]

Mynah Bird?

I recall many visits to the Rose Bowl Cafe as a small child in the 1960s. We used to walk from Anderby Creek where we used to spend summer holidays. There used to be a Mynah Bird I think.

Harrisons Store

I spent the whole of the school summer holidays working on Manor Farm at Anderby from 1947 to 1951. Each evening and all weekends were spent at Anderby creek with Harrisons Stores as base. Bob Harrison used to get me a weekly supply of cigarettes which were kept behind the counter and collected on Saturday (Pay Day!) If I ran short... [more]

Harrison's store

The store with the petrol pumps in this photograph was owned from at leat the early 1950s to the late 70's by a couple, originally from Leicester, called Bob and Grace Harrison. In the season, opening hours were around 6am to 11pm, and the store sold just about everything.

Holidays at Sandilands.

My late father used to rent an apartment in a large house opposite the 'pullover' where we would stay for some 2-3 weeks each summer from about 1949-1955. I remember that the lady who owned the house had a large black Labrador who used to love playing on the beach with me and he would dig very large holes in the... [more]

Bohemia Caravan Site

This was the year my Grandma & Grandad bought a Bluebird Caravan, which they sited on the Bohemia Caravan Site. Just over from the sea top this caravan was the beginning of many happy holidays to be spent at Sutton-on-Sea. Bohemia was lovely, always tidy, flower beds planted - even if there were gas mantles to be lit, water to be... [more]

Extracts From Huttoft & Lincolnshire books

Displaying a selection of extracts from Frith books about Huttoft, inspired by Frith photos.

Lincolnshire Pocket Album

The village lies three miles inland along what passes for a ridge in this flat country between the Wolds and the sand dunes. The church is a curious mix of greenstone and limestone giving a patchwork quilt effect, while the chancel is in brick. The 13th-century tower windows below the belfry are studded with carved dogtooth mouldings. Beyond is the school... [more]
