Healing Big Dig

It has been roughly 10 years since the last major dig at Healing Moated Manor site, or in Healing at all, and the Friends of Healing Moated Manor wants to fix this! There will be an open public meeting on June 6th, at 19:00 hours at the village hall to gauge public interest in this event: if you feel you can contribute, or just want to hear about what's going on, then please do turn up and show your support.
Please contact me for more details.

When: 7 o'clock in the evening, on June 6th
Where: Healing Village Hall

Healing Manor For Sale

After some unfortunate history recently, Healing Manor has been put on the market, at a cost of £650,000. I personally think that this is great news - to have over one thousand years of well-preserved history on the brink of destruction  in just a few years is absolutely awful. I hope the new owner takes great care of this most iconic piece of Healing's history.

Best of luck to the future owner,
James

New Publication

I've just received a new publication about Healing - the excavation report for the church. It's a fascinating read, available from Jews Court Bookshop, Steep Hill, Lincoln.
Watch this space for future articles...

Happy New Year!
