Driver drops the beet

Stockwell Gate just north of Holbeach was temporarily closed on Tuesday (January 13) after a lorry spill.

A toppled tractor trailer spilled sugarbeet on to the narrow road near to the TCM Distribution premises and close to the road’s junction with the A17.

Nobody is believed to have been injured in the incident which occurred early in the morning.
