An 81-year-old man has been charged with eight sexual offences as part of an ongoing enquiry into allegations of abuse dating back to 1958.

Operation Redstone follows a review of past safeguarding cases by the Diocese of Lincoln.

Roy Griffiths from Dorset has been charged with six counts of indecent assault on a boy under the age of 14 and two counts of inciting a boy under the age of 14 to commit an act of gross indecency.

He has been bailed to appear at Lincoln District Magistrates Court on Thursday, June 8.

As part of the investigation, officers say they are working in partnership with the Diocese and the Cathedral and are keen to hear from anyone who might have information that could assist the enquiry.
