Finished and a real credit to the community ...1975.
Notes: Further up to date information about the Hall and its use can be obtained from
Alan Rundle at Rundle’s Engineering Works, New Bolingbroke.
Alan is the grandson of J.H. Rundle Snr “Jack” who I had the privilege of working with on
that original Management Committee introducing all these changes.
New Bolingbroke is a unique ‘Town’ probably the first ever ‘New Town’ built in the UK in
the early 1800’s. David Robinson the Lincolnshire Historian, has an enthralling lecture all
about the ‘town ‘ and its creator, who’s house in the village, we were fortunate to live in for
our 14 years.

POSTSCRIPT

undergone a further restoration this last year, 2016, which included replacing the windows
in the arches. A picture of the even more improved Town Hall is included here.
