  1. I have in my possession a note book from Gosberton Hall School which dates from mid 1880’s. It is entitled “Life at School”,has printed guide to school activities and chronicles the daily life of one of the pupils Edward ? in beautiful copper plate handwriting.Mr Boyer is mentioned in the notes.
    I would like this notebook to go to a museum or school archive if I find the right place for it.
    Please forward info so that notebook can be returned to its origins.
    Thank you, Lily Betts

    1. Dear Lily, Our Museum would be honoured to have the note book. We would photograph it and make it available on our website so the maximum number of people can share it and conduct research. I am also a member of Gosberton History Group linked to the church and we would make it available for them. Currently over 100 people a day view our artefacts online.
      Hope you approve of this usage.
      Regards

  2. My Aunt Miss M Speight was head at Gosberton Hall Scool for many years.
    I visited with my parents many times
    when I was a child.
    To me it was such a grand place

    1. Fascinating. I’m Secretary of Gosberton & District Local History Society, and I write books on Gosberton history. At some point in the not too distant future I’ll be researching Gosberton Hall during the time it was a school. If you have any stories about the school, or any photos of your aunt, the school or its pupils, that you’d be willing to share (and potentially see published) then I’d love to hear from you. My email is gosberton@btinternet.com

  3. I have just googled Gosberton Hall School as I am going through my late mothers’s papers and there are newspaper cuttings and letters about it. My mother died 30 years ago and was part of the Blanchard and Boyer Family. For the sake of my children I could put these papers in the paper recycling box but I hesitate to do so before asking you if you’d be interested in looking at them! Please may I post them to you? You could then bin them if not of interest but I would feel better for your having looked at them. I don’t know your part of England at all and my mother rarely spoke of her antecedents so I write to you as someone interested in Gosberton Local History.
