Heritage Open Days 2009/2010 Membership of Heritage Lincolnshire
Only a fragment of the original buildings survive, but this education pack shows how evidence can be gathered together from many different sources to reconstruct Tupholme Abbey and show what it might once have looked like. Heritage Lincolnshire is planning to re-launch this project in Spring 2010 due to confirmation of a grant of £300,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund. The project will run from 2010-2012 and will create a county-wide network of volunteer Heritage Stewards who will carry out a large scale investigation of Lincolnshire's heritage. Gibraltar Point, at the northeast corner of the Wash estuary, was declared a nature reserve in 1949 and a National Nature Reserve in 1984. Over 200 bird species have been recorded here. It is also home to a small colony of the rare Natterjack toad. Heritage Open Days 2009 was a great success, attracting over 15,000 visitors to the 79 free events that were staged across the county.

Planning now begins for Heritage Open Days 2010! (9th to 12th September 2010). The theme is "Lincolnshire at War - through the ages".
