Also a big craft centre and several flea market building. All housed in RAF buildings and hangers. There is a small aviation museum and planes too. Lots of greasy spoon eateries. Best on a Sunday when it has a huge car boot and market. I have bought Victorian pen and inks for approx £3 and sold them for £90. Lot's of books and well anything..furniture, clothes, plants. It is HUGE! Ghosts: My father and I looked around an old hanger with ex RAF furniture and equipment for sale. All the time we were in there a phone was ringing. It was annoying and my father declared he wished someone would answer it. Later he read that the hanger was haunted by a phone constantly ringing and that there was no phone in the building! Others: Two ghosts have been reported at this former World War Two airbase. A pilot who crash landed runs down the runway with his clothes on fire, while an engineer who lost his arm in machinery staggers around screaming. A ghostly rendition of the Missouri Waltz is also reported.

The market side has a good range of stalls from clothes and shoes, through to diy goods and confectionary. There are also flea market areas within the outbuildings which make a nice diversion whilst walking around.

Everything pictures! This is an established family run business in Cleethorpes on Alexandra Road,…read moreoverlooking the seafront. The main element of the business is that of art gallery and picture framing. The range of prints and original artwork available is outstanding. Where outside a big city will you find art by the likes of Todd White? you wouldn't expect to find it in Cleethorpes but yes, the limited edition (95 prints only) releases which are hand embellished by Todd White have been on sale here, albeit not for long because you can't get them for love nor money. Traditional watercolours to modern prints can be found here and prices that are surprisingly cheap - the Todd White pieces were only £700 each. If you need something framing then this is the place to go. Forget any of these bargain basement type places because they often don't have much of a clue. Mig (the owner) just has an eye for framing. He just knows exactly what will look best. When I need something framing I don't even bother thinking about what I want because I just leave it up to him and know the end result will be perfect. Finally upstairs of the gallery is an art studio which hosts lessons for all levels by famous watercolour artist Leslie Treacher.

Absolutely lovely small fine arts gallery in Lincoln, adjacent to The Collection (an archaeological…read moredisplay of Lincolnshire). It is very typical of regional arts galleries in England, offering a mixed display of paintings, sculptures and arts & crafts objects. The picture collection is the most appealing part of it, offering a nice selection of mostly 19th century landscape and genre paintings, but there are also works by 20th century painters like L.S. Lowry. As you may expect, the "big" names in the history of painting are missing here, it's mostly devoted to artists and subjects of the area. The lighting in the rooms could be a bit brighter (no fear of damaging the paintings), and the explanatory tables next to the works a tad more illuminating. Clearly, the exhibition was designed quite a while ago. Entry is free of charge, and photography is allowed.

The August Festival also became associated with the Morris Dancing Festival organised by the Alford Morris Team, and this is still carried on with displays of dancing, and a grand ceilidh on the Sunday of the Bank Holiday. There is also performance art and lots of music and comedy. Accoustic, Irish, Folk. Plus juggling..acrobats etc. Open all day and evening with music also in the Half Moon. Free to get in but there are buckets, for making donations, at the gates.

As it is, still a nice place to hang out and unwind in good weather. There's a "casino" attached (as always, open only in the high season), but there's no café on the pier as such, but several pubs are available in the area (about a five minute walk from the pier). In contrast with the cheap amusements nearby, this is a nicely quiet place.
