History Group Progress & Plans







A Century of Village Life in Hackthorn and Cold Hanworth
Location: Lincolnshire

The property and land of these two villages still remains chiefly in the ownership of one family trust and therefore there is little scope for expansion. Lifelong residents have witnessed the change from cottage and tenant farming, with employment mainly within the villages, to commuter villages with syndicate farming.

The project will record village life during the 20th century, informing the younger generation of the enormous changes and diversification that have occurred in this once self-contained and self-sufficient community.
