Step into the rich history of Wragby with the latest pop-up museum:
The latest pop-up museum in the series opened to the public on Bardney Road opposite the Market Place, Wragby. running from the 21st of June to the 21st of September.
"Wragby Museum: Where Five Roads Meet" showcased the depth of history and heritage at Wragby where five roads converge in a picturesque market town. The museum told the story of Wragby town from the very beginning, covering topics ranging from the farms and horses of the prehistoric inhabitants of the town, interior decoration and unruly toddlers in Roman villas, an impressively grand medieval manor, all the way to the 1917 auction of the entire town and beyond including archaeological and historical museum objects, many of which were on display for the first time.
The museum was the culmination of extensive, passionate research by the Wragby Heritage Group, with contributions from Lincolnshire County Council, East Lindsey District Council with Councillor Ru Yarsley and funding from the East Lindsey Investment Fund (ELIF), The Lincoln Museum, The Museum of Lincolnshire Life, Lincolnshire Archives. We are also very grateful for the contributions from Allen Archaeology Limited, PCAS Archaeology Limited, Pre-Construct Geophysics, Dave Watt Archaeological Illustration, Pighill Heritage Graphics, Allen Signs, and Energy Cell.
