Learn About Historic Lordship
Lordship Is Rich In Fascinating History!
In 1924, 25 Lordship residents who were "disgusted with the washboard road between Lordship and Bridgeport," met at the Lordship Firehouse on May 14 to create the Lordship Improvement Association (LIA) to do something about it. Thus began a legacy of the LIA shaping Lordship into the seaside community we love today.
The Lordship Improvement Association’s 100th Anniversary Celebration on a warm but pleasantly breezy June 23, 2024 became a bit of history itself, as the LIA welcomed hundreds of Lordship residents to a party on the Lordship Bluffs, thanking all for their continuing financial and volunteer support.
