===Closures=== Brook Street and Hill Avenue sub-post offices were closed in Grantham in 2008 as part of the Post Office Network Change programme. In August 2010 it was confirmed that the Grantham branch of [[Marks and Spencer]] would close, with two other Lincolnshire branches in [[Skegness]] and [[Scunthorpe]], due to low sales, although a Marks and Spencer Food Hall re-opened in 2014. The closure met with local protests.<ref>BBC News Lincolnshire 25 August 2010 [https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lincolnshire-11076135 "M&S confirms three store closures in Lincolnshire"].
