👍 Free entry and car park to this historical farm site which is tucked away in Skegness well away from the glitz and touristy spots by the beach. Well worth a visit with a small cafe attached.

👍👍 This place was an old engineering factory but it’s now a museum. There are some massive steel features around the area. It’s open to the public and I’ve been there twice for a fashion shoot.

These two displays take up most of the ground floor and if you were to read and study all the information on display about them you'd need an hour or two. Upstai...
