History
The Massingberd Arms is no longer a Public House but is now ome to the Jarnell family and Tastee Lamb.

Emily Massingberd bought this pub during the time she lived at Gunby Hall and turned it into a Temperance Hotel (the pub with no beer). She gathered the tenants of the estate together on the banks of one of the ponds and from the safety of a boat would lecture them on the evils of drink!

Today (still with with no amount of beer in the cellar) we sell Tastee Lamb and Free Range Eggs to the ever increasing number of people passing by to the coast.

We don't have many old photographs of work on the farms, but the secod photo on the rightis taken at Grange Farm Welton-le-Marsh, which is part of the Gunby Hall estate. Here you can see sheaves of corn being loaded onto a new trailer with a draw bar for a tractor still being pulled with a Shire horse.

The third photograph is of Bernard Jarnell loading bales onto a trailer with a Bale Slave in 1965 .At that time the farm was much smaller but employed a lot more labour than today.
