SCANDALS OF THE LINCOLNSHIRE GENTRY: Adrian Gray will look at some of the scandals that beset the ‘gentry’ of Lincolnshire, drawing on his research for a future publication and also including some of the so-called ‘Princes of the Church’ in the early 1800s who gave the diocese a bad name for corruption as described in his new book ‘Restless Souls, Global Roots’. Political chicanery, marital infidelity, social scandal…..who knows what the ‘better class’ got up to!?
