The Eagle Hotel was opened in 1865 and was intended to cater to railway users. The Mablethorpe train station was intially going to be located close to the Eagle Hotel but was eventually constructed in 1978 next to the High Street. It was a very large building for a small village, with 74 rooms. The building would gradually be reduced in size until the 1920s. The hotel now operates as a public house. The building was constructed of brick which has since been covered with yellow render. {1}{2}
