New town welcome sign at Bourne, Lincolnshire

Image: © Rex Needle Taken: 23 Aug 2015

New town signs were erected in the summer of 2015 on all entrance roads into Bourne to welcome visitors although the amenities offered on the previous one have been reduced to just three, the Red Hall which is rarely open to the public, swimming at the outdoor pool which is only open in the summer months, and places to eat in a town where the number of takeaways has increased. Two of our main attractions, the Abbey Church and Baldock’s Mill, have both been excluded for some inexplicable reason together with public toilets, no doubt because they have all been closed except for a small cubicle at the new Community Access Point.
