Mablethorpe market cancelled due to high winds
Sue Archibald, deputy clerk at Mablethorpe & Sutton Town Council, said: “The regular Thursday market in Mablethorpe is cancelled due to severe weather due to a forecast of rain and gusting high winds up to 47mph, all day, as last week.
“Gusting high winds are a particular problem on the market as there is a risk of injury to traders and the public from flying boards, rails, canopies, stock, etc and insurances are rendered invalid if trading in unsafe conditions.

Ms Archibald added: “We hope that normal service will be resumed next week!”
