Work Underway To Develop £1m Visitor Centre

Work is underway to build a £1m visitor centre at a nature reserve in Lincolnshire.

The new building at Gilbralter Point Nature Reserve will include a café and educational information.

It will replace the former visitor centre which suffered flood damage during a storm surge in December 2013.

Work on the new building is being carried out by builders John Martin-Hoyes, who will also refurbish the old coastguard building adjacent to the construction site.

The building will be raised on stilts to protect it from future flooding.

Councillor Colin Davie said: "The new visitor centre has been designed to make the most of the reserve's stunning views, with expansive windows facing the dunes and sea, and a rooftop viewing deck."

The project is being funded by Lincolnshire County Council, the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust and the Government's Coastal Communities Fund.
