“The owner was unaware of traffic restrictions but has now been informed.
“Hopefully the issue is now resolved.”
The local highways manager for Lincolnshire County Council said: “We haven’t had any reports regarding urgent parking issues in the Market Place, in Horncastle.”
The highways manager added that if the problem continued, it was something that the county council could look into - however the parking issue would need to be weighed up against other priorities the county council is dealing with.
