The current owners said: “We fell in love with the history of this house and its peaceful location amongst the Lincolnshire Fens.
“The original part of the house dates to 1650 with two later annexes which have created an impressively spacious home ideal for large or inter-generational families.
“For us though, it offered the potential to create a holiday cottage business as the annexes can easily operate as independent accommodation.
“When we moved in, we realised the house had lost some of its original character, so we set about a scheme of re-decoration and restoration to bring it back to its former glory, including renovating fireplaces and installing new window shutters.”

They added: “We’ll really miss the character and charm of this house, and all the space! We’ve loved having the time to get to know our neighbours and relax amongst this beautiful countryside.
“Everyone here is so friendly, and it’s very safe – there hasn’t been any crime at all during nearly six years we’ve lived here.”

Tenants living in a large block of council flats on Lincoln’s Ermine Estate have criticised the building’s “run down” condition, highlighting several issues.
Trent View residents, contending with problems such as excessive bird excrement and poor insulation, have also criticised City of Lincoln Council for its delayed handling of ongoing issues like leaks.
As people prepare to go out more in the run up to Christmas, a Lincoln woman who created the globally renowned Ask For Angela not-for-profit scheme is proud to have made the county, and the world, a safer place.
The scheme, launched by Hayley Crawford (pictured above) in 2016, aims to ensure that anyone who is feeling vulnerable or unsafe is able to get the support they need. This could be on a night out, a date, meeting friends and other situations, and it is available to everyone of all genders to help them feel safer.
