Lincolnshire Reporter has searched through archive footage to bring you shots of Mablethorpe through the years.
The footage, published by the British Film Institute, British Pathé and Huntley Film Archives shows an array of images from as early as 1940, giving us a taste of what Mablethorpe was like back in the day.
Take a look back at some of the footage we have come across:

Mablethorpe railway station, seen here packed with returning holidaymakers, closed in 1970.
