Former village Hall, Skellingthorpe
Photo Image, taken in 2007, shows this as the village hall (built 1928). The present village hall is on Lincoln Road, along with the Skellingthorpe Heritage Building (see:Image).
As the left-hand sign shows, this is now the scout hut. Perhaps the motto "Be Prepared" refers to the skip which has invaded this 2012 photo!

Skellingthorpe cottages: Christ's Hospital coat of arms
See: Image
These estate houses (or former estate cottages) were built thanks to Henry Stone, Lord of the Manor of Skellingthorpe, who is buried in the churchyard.
Henry Stone died in 1693. In his will he gave his Manor and land to Christ's Hospital, London. On the land they built cottages, a school and the pub.
In 1914 Christ's Hospital sold off by Auction all their properties in the Parish.
