Work to remove contaminated soil from woods near Woodhall Spa gets under way today after canisters containing mustard gas dating back to World War One were found there last month.

With that work getting started, here's the story so far:

• Police were called to Roughton Moor Woods on Sunday 1 October after the discovery of what was then described as a "World War Two device"
• On 3 October, Lincolnshire Police confirmed the "device" was actually a collection of mustard gas canisters - chemical weapons used in World War One later banned by the Geneva Protocol in 1925
• Two people were injured after discovering the canisters while searching for antique bottles. They were treated for burns and minor breathing problems
• The find was declared as a "major incident" shortly afterwards. The Army, RAF bomb disposal experts, the Navy, the ambulance service, the fire service and Police were all involved

• A public meeting on 12 October confirmed a total of 14 boxes containing 150 canisters were discovered in the Woodhall Spa area

It's taken nearly 15 years, but work to transform a Lincolnshire village church into a community centre has finally begun.

Benington Church, near Boston, has been closed since 2003 but after a £1.8m grant from the Heritage Lottery, contractors have started work.

The 800-year-old Grade I-listed building will replace the current village hall as the community centre.

The process has taken so long because of the costs and complications of converting a church.

In parts of Grimsby, there's been an increase in the number of accidents since the introduction of several 20mph zones, new figures show.

Phillip Jackson, the Conservative leader of North East Lincolnshire Council, says this shows the lower speed limits aren't working.

North East Lincolnshire Council says it will look into the causes of these accidents in more detail and will report back in the new year.

The box (pictured) went missing in October and was later returned to the church after being damaged.

It's thought that it would have been in use when John Cotton inspired the Pilgrim Fathers to set sail to find a new life in America.

The man charged with the theft is due in court this morning.
