She wasn't there in 1911 because the census of that year shows it was being run by a gent who gloried in the name of Theophilus Whatling. I called at Waterside House in September when I was in the area and was made most welcome bt the present owners, who arwe now selling up.

The truly annoying thing is that Lincolnshire is awash with land - we don't need to make space ! It genuinely is a disgrace All the best Rod John,

The truly annoying thing is that Lincolnshire is awash with land - we don’t need to make space !
It genuinely is a disgrace

Sadly, the school was demolished to make way for new homes. Shame on you, planners. I attended Barton Grammar School on Caistor Road in the mid-70s.
