History Book of Welton le Wold is now published. Welton le Wold,
near Louth, is today a quiet farming hamlet nestling in the
Lincolnshire Wolds. But it has a rich history going back to the
time of Domesday and beyond. Past and present residents of Welton
le Wold have joined together and, with
financial assistance from the lottery, published a book about the
village. The book gives an account of the features of this
charming Wolds village, but above all remembers some of the
prominent characters, families and events that have brought life
to the community over the past century or so. With 120 pages and
over 300 photographs and images, this book makes an engaging read.
Available from Debbie Lishman at £9.99 on 01507 450271 and
