Animal rights campaigners charged after quarry protest at Ancaster
The protest began in the early hours of Monday morning outside Goldholme Quarry at Ancaster.
Two protestors had to be arrested and removed by police after chaining themselves to a concrete block and laying across the entrance to the quarry. The A153 had to be closed for half an hour to disperse the protestors who were campaigning against quarry owner Phil Kerry’s ownership of a rabbit farm.
