“We have items from the Lincolnshire Police archives on display at the Old Police Station, as well as items and research from our own society,” said Caroline Foster, chairman of Rase Heritage.

“We hope lots of people will take time to look at the displays and join in the tours and other events.”

The Crime, Law and Order event will begin with a talk and tour of the Old Police Station in the town’s Dear Street on May 3 at 11am.

The Old Police Station will then be open every Tuesday throughout May, from 10.30am to 2pm.
