Rural Crime: Criminal damage caused to Church of The Holy Trinity in Tattershall

The force’s Rural Crime Action Team are investigating criminal damage at Collegiate, Church of The Holy Trinity in Tattershall, where damage has been caused to one of the medieval doors with a panel removed and a notice board also burned.

The repair and restoration of all three main doors to the church, which date back to the 15th century, is estimated to be around £70,000, church warden Sheila Mullenger said.
