Quinceys Pumping Station is situated at Thorpe Culvert some two miles from Wainfleet on the Steeping River.
The station was built in 1938 but was replaced with a new electric station by the former Skegness District Internal Drainage Board in the mid 1970s. The diesel engines were retained by the Board on standby but by the early 1990s the station was in need of considerable work with only one pump in working order.
Fortunately, a small but dedicated group of volunteers offered to renovate the pumps under the guidance of the late Mr Dennis Quincey. This restoration began in 1994 and continues with the volunteers meeting on the fourth Sunday of every month to undertake maintenance of the engines and the station.
The station is still used as a backup by Lindsey Marsh Drainage Board and is run by the volunteers on these occasions.
