Donington prepares for Matthew Flinders' reburial
Preparations are gathering pace ahead of the reburial of the remains of explorer Matthew Flinders in his home village of Donington.
Flinders led several voyages around Australia and is credited with giving the continent its name.
His coffin was rediscovered during work on the HS2 rail project in London, leading to a campaign to return his remains to Lincolnshire.
