City of Lincoln Council have approved internal and external alterations to the building, including a new cocktail bar, beer garden and cellar.

The venue, named Quickdraw, was supposed to open in September 2020 but was delayed due to the pandemic so in October, a pop-up simulation shooting range opened at Home nightclub in Lincoln, with technology used by US police and replicas of real guns.

Ruddocks of Lincoln closed in 2017 and was a family-run business for more than 160 years.

The changes are set to take shape by March this year.

The county's gritters will be taking to the roads as temperatures plunge once more.

Angry residents have criticised the National Trust after a postcode mix-up caused hundreds of motorists to flood into their village last month despite the coronavirus pandemic.

Villagers next to historic Belton House say visitors to a festive lights trail at the Grade I-listed Georgian house drove up their driveways and even knocked on doors to ask for directions:

The traffic chaos was so bad residents on one lane chose to barricade their street with wheelie bins to prevent further disruption caused by visitors to the country home, near Grantham.

Belton councillor Colin Thornton said: "Washdyke Lane is an unadopted single track lane that leads to a dead end. It was initially inundated with vehicles trying to turn around in a very small area or on private drives in the dark and in poor weather conditions to the extent that residents had to block the entrance to the lane with a wheelie bin with a sign stating "Not Belton House".

A spokesperson from the National Trust at Belton House said: "The postcode for the entrance to Belton House and its car park also covers an area of Belton village.

"Unfortunately a small number of visitors miss the entrance as they drive past. Working closely with the local authorities we have taken steps to mitigate this."

A total of four Lincoln City first team players and coaching staff have tested positive for Covid-19, it's been confirmed.

The club says it won't name the individuals to respect their privacy.

Cancer support workers in Lincolnshire say it's vital people get any symptoms which are causing concern checked out as soon as possible.

The warning comes after some patients in Lincolnshire have revealed they are too scared to go to hospitals for treatment due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Staff at the county's main hospitals says it's another challenge they've got to face as they try to reduce the numbers who've been left waiting months to start their chemo.

NHS leaders in Lincolnshire have hit back at claims the coronavirus vaccine roll-out in the county is being badly handled or communicated.

Earlier, the leaders of all of Lincolnshire's councils and the County Council signed a joint letter to Health Secretary Matt Hancock criticising a "veil of secrecy" around the process.

The leader of South Holland District Council and chair of the Local Government Association took to social media to complain about a lack of plan for his area:

However, health bosses have said they're not trying to hide anything and have guaranteed complete coverage across the county when eight vaccination centres open next week.

Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group's Director of Nursing, Martin Fahy, says they've been ahead of the curve in many respects:

Several Lincoln City players and staff have tested positive for Covid-19, the club has said.

The club is expected to release a statement later, but the Imps' clash with promotion rivals Peterborough United will still be going ahead tomorrow, it's been confirmed.

Manager Michael Appleton has confirmed he will be back in the dugout after recovering from the virus himself.

It happened at about 16:30 on Thursday 17 December when what's thought to be a silver Vauxhall estate, registration DV51 UBV, crashed into a property in White Hart Mews on Southgate (pictured).

The vehicle was then driven off, according to Lincolnshire Police.

The front of the car will have suffered some damage and a front headlight is likely to have been smashed, officers believe.

The driver of the car, or anyone who saw what happened, is being asked to contact the Lincolnshire force.

Officers visited the property on Cambridge Street on Monday afternoon, according to Lincolnshire Police.

Two boys, aged 15 and 16, and a 43-year-old man were arrested at the property on suspicion of being involved in the supply of a Class A drug.

All three have been released on bail and investigations continue, they add.

It will be a dry, cold night in Lincolnshire. Here's the latest forecast:

The leaders of Lincolnshire's county councils and the county council have signed a joint letter to the Health Secretary Matt Hancock criticising the "veil of secrecy" surrounding plans for the rollout of Covid vaccines.

The letter, by Martin Hill, leader of Lincolnshire County Council and chair of Lincolnshire Outbreak Engagement Board, was sent on behalf of all the county's council leaders.

It asks Mr Hancock to be more transparent about the vaccine rollout programme.

In the letter, Mr Hill says local government is "very keen" to support the NHS.

He adds: "However, this support is very much being constrained by national edicts which are apparently preventing local managers from sharing details of their local delivery plans with us.

"As you are well aware, there will be an understandable demand from the public to understand when and where they can expect their vaccinations.

"To attempt to cover the plans in a veil of secrecy makes no sense to them or us, and will only undermine confidence and patience locally," he adds.
