heritage logocroppedMinting and Gautby Heritage Society has now become Minting, Gautby & District Heritage Society. The successful conclusion of the Heritage Lottery funded project on July 3rd, 2010, completed two years of hard work and resulted in our Village Book – Glimpses and Gleanings as well as our Heritage Kiosk, Interpretation Plinth and Heritage Trail.  Subsequently, with grant funding from the Lincolnshire Limewoods Project, the Heritage Society designed the Village Signs – one located near the church in Gautby and one opposite the Priory Field in Minting, close to the village centre.

As well as embarking on Volume 2 which will include Wispington and Waddingworth, at our AGM in 2014 we agreed to change our constitution to allow us to promote and support cultural events in our area.

If you would like to help us – we have various admin, research and cataloguing tasks to do!  Or maybe you are a good artist or have some area of research you would like to undertake which could be considered for inclusion in Volume 2.  Our email address is mintinggautbyheritagesociety@gmail.com

Described as ”first rate”, “absolutely stunning” and “ought to be a template for village history books”, Volume I, a 135 page, A4, full colour, hardback village book is exceptional. The book was written and designed by volunteers, and published on July 3rd, 2010.  The Heritage Lottery Fund representative was delighted.

Should you wish to purchase a copy of our village book, Glimpses and Gleanings from Minting and Gautby, please enquire at Minting Park Farm shop.

Our constitution can be read Heritage Society Revised Constitution Nov 2014.
