Summary
[edit]DescriptionFormer Town Hall, Horncastle - geograph.org.uk - 1409136.jpg |
English: Former Town Hall, Horncastle. This former Town Hall, on Boston Road, is the former New Drill Hall. It was built in 1901, the foundation stone 1409123 being laid by Right Honorable The Earl of Yarborough, The Right Worshipful Provincial Grand Master of Lincolnshire with full Masonic Ceremonial on Thursday the 13th Day of June. Public donations raised most of the money to build the hall, which cost £2,500. The Horncastle Rifle Volunteers used the premises, which included a rifle range for the practice of firing .22 rifles, and a sergeant/caretaker's house.
In WWI the building was used as a Red Cross Hospital and in WWII, for the rest and rehabilitation of servicemen. It wasn't until 1970 that the Drill Hall became a Town Hall and it is now sadly awaiting demolition. The old Drill Hall - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1408871 |
