Hard Hat Day a success Heritage Lincolnshire staged one of their popular 'Hard Hat' days, when those associated with the project, and interested members of the public, were invited to take a look behind the scenes of a project in progress. Mystery of missing Workhouse Clock solved During the building repair work, the clock frame was discovered intact. However, the clock face itself and the mechanism had been removed. The Workhouse will be open to the public on Saturday 7th April. This is a unique opportunity for members of the public to see restoration in progress.
Entry is completely free.
Work is progressing on the old Union Workhouse despite the recent severe weather conditions. The building is being repaired by the Heritage Trust of Lincolnshire for use as an education resource center for adults with physical disabilities. October 2000 Work started in September on a major project to repair and convert the old Union Workhouse into a resource centre for people with physical disability. Three years of hard work have finally paid off for the Heritage Trust of Lincolnshire, who are due to start their second Building Preservation Trust project in the County.
