There used to be an ambulance garage at the fire station, but it was destroyed in a terrible fatal fire. The replacement was built here, which at the time was in the grounds of the isolation hospital. That facility was torn away from us by NHS management, and in recent years the merger of the Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire ambulance trusts nearly cost us the ambulance station too. But we need it, and much agitation saved the facility. The ambulance station is now tucked away in a housing estate built where the hospital once stood.
