Horncastle Town Council commemorates 50th anniversary
Fifty years on from its inception, Horncastle’s Town Council has marked its birthday.
At the Town Council’s full council meeting on Tuesday (December 12), the councillors enjoyed a special celebration to mark the council’s 50th anniversary.
As well as enjoying drinks and a special cake made by Susan Fox of Foxy Cakes & Bakes, the council members were able to browse through specially bound minutes of meetings from years gone by.
Mayor Matt Wilkinson, chairman of the council, said at the meeting: “Happy birthday to Horncastle Town Council!
“It’s quite a privilege to be sat here as chairman in the council’s 50th year and want to say a big thank you for all the hard work of the staff and volunteers who kept the community functioning the way it does, they do a brilliant job and can sometimes go un-noticed and I want to thank them for what they do.”
