Spilsby's Sessions House Project

Spilsby's Sessions House Project The Sessions House CIC is an officially registered 'Not for Profit' Community Interest Company, seeking positive outcomes for heritage, culture and community.

A combined arts, heritage and community project that aims to completely regenerate Spilsby's Sessions House (Spilsby Theatre), a grade II listed former courthouse and police station. The Sessions House project has the long term aim of regenerating a Grade II listed former courthouse and police station in the rural town of Spilsby, Lincolnshire. The building has been used as Spilsby Theatre since 1

984 and is now on the national 'Theatre Buildings at Risk Register.'

The project will reinvigorate the community asset, preserving a piece of national heritage by reviving the theatre, creating a flexible performing arts venue in the historic building. We are working with national funding organisations and seeking public support to help finance the regeneration project. For more details please visit www.thesessionshouse.org.uk

News Release 🗞️

The Heritage at Risk works funded by Historic England have been completed at Spilsby Sessions House.

Spilsby Sessions House was first allocated £1.006 million in August 2025 as part of the Heritage at Risk Capital Fund programme which allowed repairs to the roofs, conservation to the windows and some high-level brick works.

Historic England granted an additional £28,500 to the project in March 2026. This funding was for the removal of existing auditorium ceiling under the main roof, whilst retaining and storing some of the decorative features, to be reinstalled when the new ceiling is built. The ceiling work was approved by East Lindsey District Council at planning committee in early February this year.

Historic England's Heritage at Risk Capital Fund programme supports the conservation and regeneration of at-risk heritage assets across the country, and restoring local heritage to ensure it can be enjoyed for many generations to come.

The grant was awarded in addition to the £4.929 million of UK Government funding already secured to ensure the further transformation of this important cultural asset, though a partnership between East Lindsey District Council and Spilsby Sessions House Charity.
