Fire of 1900
The Warboys fire of 1900 was a significant event in the village’s history. It resulted in the destruction of 16 houses and outbuildings along Warboys High Street.
The fire also caused the death of livestock, including calves and poultry. Tragically, a resident named Mr. Raby died of shock caused by the outbreak of the fire.
Despite the devastation, the community came together to rebuild the village demonstrating their resilience.
