Bonby History Group exists to research and publice the history of this lovely Lincolnshire Village (its history, heritage and past occupants) The History Group comprises a small group of friends who have a common interest in researching the history of the village which is one of the Spring Line Villages in the Ancholme Valley within Lincolnshire.
The History Group produced an excellent presentation during 2023 in the Village Hall and the Parish Church revealing to visitors many of their findings and reproduced pictures of the village and villagers from the past.
