There is the opportunity to see the old courtroom too, where there are displays created by the Rase Heritage Society.

The latest addition are items belonging to the grandfather of the council’s business consultation Nicola Marshall.

Robert Fillingham was a serving police officer at the Market Rasen station from 1944 to 1950 and lived in Dear Street.

Items include his helmet badge, a copy of his identity card and some police manuals of the time.
