Work on the Trail started in 2016 as a project for Sleaford and District Civic Trust aimed at improving local knowledge of the town’s history with audio-visual representations of characters from the town’s past. It was completed in 2018 but with subsequent additions. 

 

In 2024 all locations were added to the international ECHOES geo-spatial sound walks, providing an alternative audio experience.
