It is time, once again, to take a trip down memory lane. Here are six pieces from our titles a decade ago – one each from the Boston Standard, Horncastle News, Louth Leader, Market Rasen Mail, Skegness Standard and Sleaford Standard.
5. Skegness
News that Skegness Magistrates’ Court was scaling down to two-days-a-week (from three) sparked fears that it may be earmarked for closure.A spokesman from the Criminal Defence Associates firm of solicitors in Lincolnshire said: “It would appear to be a cost-cutting exercise, but everything is interconnectedso saving money in one area would just mean the cost being piled elsewhere - such as the cost of issuing warrants or transporting people from rural areas on low incomes who fail to appear.” A magistrates' court spokeman said said there were no plans to close the Skegness court and the new sitting pattern was to increase efficiency and effectiveness.
