Over the past year we have focused much of our effort on assessing listed Places of Worship; visiting those considered to be in poor or very bad condition as a result of local reports.

This document may be reproduced with prior permission of the Environment Agency. Summary The Lincolnshire Shoreline Management Plan (SMP) established a policy of ‘hold the existing defence line’ for the Lincshore coastline. As part of the Lincshore Coastal Defences Strategy (covering Donna Nook to Skegness) we are proposing to implement the SMP. To deliver the strategy, beach nourishment material will continue to be placed annually along the coastline between Mablethorpe and Ingoldmells. A performance review of the beach nourishment project has been undertaken, in preference to a full strategy review, which supports the Lincshore project, enabling a 0.5% annual probability of flooding (1 in 200 year return period) standard of protection along the frontage over a period of 100 years.

Since we started the festival back support us in 1994, Heritage Lincolnshire has worked with volunteers and staff at historic sites to create an exciting programme of events that changes every year. We’re really proud that the festival here in Lincolnshire is now one of the biggest and best attended outside of London.

This lesser known charter restored the historic rights and freedoms of common people to gather fuel, food and graze their animals in royal forests across the kingdom.

  • From Hedhelinge to Healing
    From Heghelinge to Healing Healing Manor A Village History Edited by John Appleby From Hegh to Healing A Village History E d ite d b y John Appleby Introduction Healing is situated to the north of Grimsby between the Lincolnshire Wolds and the River Humber. The medieval core of the village, the church and the Manor House, are situated on a mound now surrounded by fields and apparently isolated from the twentieth century settlement some 800 metres to the south east. The population of the village, before this century, hovered around one hundred, and indeed during this period may well have declined from its Domesday Estimate of 126 people. It was sometimes omitted from the 18th and 19th century maps of Lincolnshire. The various springs which emanate from the edge of the above mentioned clay mound afford the only item of interest for most descriptions of the village. “Healing Wells” are associated with folklore and, some have written, with the place name of the village. Today, most county guide books, and indeed local estate agents, would describe the village of Healing, as a dormitory village, housing a transient population, the majority of whom are employed in Grimsby or by the factories situated on the Humber Bank. It was therefore with some trepidation that a group of inhabitants of Healing undertook the task of writing a village history. Local historians warned that a closed village such as Healing may not be well documented, and that we should be prepared for disappointments. Thus forewarned “The History of Healing” group was formed in January 1989 at the home of Dr.

    National Character 43: Lincolnshire Wolds Area profile: Supporting documents www.naturalengland.org.uk 1 National Character 43: Lincolnshire Wolds Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper1, Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention3, we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform theirdecision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The informationthey contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. 1 The Natural Choice: Securing the Value of Nature, Defra NCA profiles are working documents which draw on current evidence and (2011; URL: www.official-documents.gov.uk/document/cm80/8082/8082.pdf) 2 knowledge.
