Here are six stories featured in our titles a decade ago – one each from the Boston Standard, Horncastle News, Louth Leader, Market Rasen Mail, Skegness Standard and Sleaford Standard.
5. Croft
The restored gravestone of Adelaide Maria Heanley, nee Cholmeley, the second cousin of famed Victorian diarist the Rev Francis Kilvert. Wiltshire-born Kilvert was a country parson who kept a diary from 1870 to 1879, serving as curate in Clyro, Radnorshire, Wales. Adelaide, who died from scarlet fever in March 1879, aged 24, was buried in Croft and is often mentioned in his work. Skegness funeral director Frank Wood and Sons had supported The Kilvert Society to restore the headstone.

6. Sleaford
Sleaford’s new town museum was expected to open before the end of 2014, it was announced. The attraction was to be created out of a redundant public toilet block in Monument Gardens, in Southgate. As of this week in 2014, contracts for the £105,000 project were now in place with Carre Heritage builders, and plans were being drawn up for the interior design of the museum. Pictured with members of Sleaford Museum Trust is Coun Andrew Hague, of Lincolnshire County Council, who had recently donated £400 towards the project. Photo: Andy Hubbert
