What's on in Stoke Rochford

Lincolnshire, England

The proper local stuff the big sites overlook — from open mic nights to dog shows, toddler groups to talks about local history that turn out to be more interesting than you'd think. Stoke Rochford keeps its calendar surprisingly full, and we've tracked down the lot. Coffee mornings that turn into proper catch-ups. Quiz nights where the same team wins every week and everyone pretends not to mind. Craft fairs, food markets, community screenings, and workshops teaching you things you didn't know you wanted to learn. All the things that make living somewhere feel like actually living somewhere, not just sleeping there.

TALK - Slaughter in the Trenches

Join us on Friday 24th April, in the Museum at 2pm, as Lee Steptoe explores the main events of World War I, explaining how new industrialised warfare, trench deadlock, and brutal battles such as the Somme and Verdun created a four-year stalemate that led to the deaths of over 10 million soldiers. This is the third talk in our ‘20th Century International History’ series, presented by Lee throughout 2026. You can purchase a Series Ticket for access to all ten talks. See below for details on each talk, including dates and topics. Speaker Bio – Born and raised in Grantham, Lee Steptoe spent over 30 years teaching History at a local secondary school.
