Nostalgic memories of Spilsby's local history

Share your own memories of Spilsby and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

Hi, does anyone know any history or have any photographs of the Chapel on Thorpe Bank, Little Steeping.  It was built in 1874 and was converted into a residential property in the 1980's.  We purchased it last year and have been searching for information as we'd love to know more about our lovely old chapel but haven't had any luck. I think it was previously known as the Primitive Methodist Chapel, Thorpe Bank, Thorpe St Peter. Hope someone can help.  Thanks.
My great great grandma, Indianna, was born in 1842 in Spilsby, her dad was Samuel Watson, does anyone have any information of this family. Indianna had several siblings, her mother was called Mary Turner. They also lived on Ashby Rd at some time, possibly either owning a farm or working on a farm. Indianna left home to work in Cheetham in Manchester as a servant. Does anyone know of the family or is indeed related to any of the siblings also the history of Samuel & Mary . Thanks Alan
