Story
The history of Weelsby Hall
Weelsby Hall is one of the grandest Victorian buildings in North East Lincolnshire.
The Grade II listed hall is set in beautiful grounds and has a rich history connected to Grimsby’s fishing heritage; it was commissioned in 1890 by George Frederick Sleight.
Throughout this time the buildings have been used to serve the needs of people with learning disabilities and autism. The site has provided a strong sense of place for the Linkage in Grimsby.
The future of Weelsby Hall
Linkage has been collaborating with multiple experts in planning a visionary future for the building, including sensitive refurbishment to preserve and protect its historic fabric.
The plans will enhance our facilities to support people with learning disabilities and neurodiversity with a specialist training centre, a bigger and better sensory library and offices.
In the beautiful grounds the Courtyard buildings will be converted into eight modern, accessible, self-contained and fully equipped residential units, with minimal changes to the existing layout. They will form part of a residential care home.
This new and exciting development will enhance the current Grimsby Linkage site.
