Tattershall Thorpe is a hamlet and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.

[2] Thorpe Camp was part of Number 1 Communal Site, RAF Woodhall Spa, and was built in 1940.

[3] By the late 1980s it was derelict, and likely to be knocked down, until the Thorpe Camp Preservation Group, a registered charity, first leased and then bought the site.

Wing Commander Guy Gibson, leader of the 1943 "Dam Busters" raid, visited on several occasions until his death in September 1944.

It contained an assemblage comprising an anvil and other items of smith's equipment, as well as bells that may have been used to signal the presence of a stranger.
