I seem to remember a Mr Aistrup who was an optician in Spalding in the 1950s. Any relation, I wonder?
Yes my grandfather!!
His yard was next to ours in Willow Walk, watched him making baskets when I was a young boy.
I knew a Michael Aistrup from Holbeach 1951 – 1956.
Anyone know of his whereabouts????

And my dad was Ted Aistrup, he was a Master Pipe Organ Builder based out of Horncastle, Lincs. He sadly passed away at 63 years old. Sorely missed!
The Aistrup in Spalding I believe we basket makers
That would be my Uncle Mick!!
Thanks do you have any memories to share. I believe he lived very close to Chain Bridge Forge. Regards Geoff
