Lovers of Lincolnshire history will soon have a wealth of new stories to discover - online and on foot - as the award-winning Market Rasen Heritage Tour and Website expands from 14 stops to 20. 

The women featured are from all walks of life, from landed gentry to publicans, headteachers to shop owners. Each have left their mark. Some locally, some nationally and some even globally. Also included in the update is a fascinating 12-minute video that reveals how local woman Louisa Boucherett helped many children from the Caistor Workhouse, making her, perhaps, one of Lincolnshire’s most unsung heroes. The updated website will be found at www.marketrasenheritagetour.co.uk from April 16th, where visitors can explore a vintage map of the town and find the women’s stories by clicking on blue bonnet icons. Six new plaques will also be placed around the town at locations connected to the women, to give a companion walking tour. The plaques all have QR codes linking them to the story pages of the website. They join 14 existing plaques in the town, giving Market Rasen a 20-stop heritage tour to satisfy even the most ardent history buff.
