Rare items from a German World War Two bomber that crashed over Lincolnshire have found a new owner - but raised less than expected.
The pilot's pocket watch and a pair of binoculars went for £320 at an auction in Market Rasen today - which was less than expected considering their good condition - and the history behind them. Their owner was on his way to bomb Hull in 1944 when he was shot down.
More than 77,000 people across Yorkshire and northern Lincolnshire were given emergency supplies from food banks last year.
Anti-fracking campaigners have gathered in Rotherham to protest against plans to drill for shale gas in the village of Harthill.
