I need to check, but I think this is Rhizobius litura, a very small, nondescript ladybird. It's common, but very easily overlooked. This one was in material sucked from a meadow during BioBlitz 2009 at Banovallum House, Horncastle, and pointed out by Roger Key.

#284 in my photo-a-day project.
This old building in Horncastle is in the process of being taken down. I'm not sure of its history, but there's something about it that appeals to me so I thought I'd better photograph it before it disappears.
The upper part of the building, with its large windows, looks like it might have been used as small-scale workshops - but I don't know.
this is alan - I saw him in a horncastle antique shop looking at the records, i thought I have just got to take a picture of him! he runs a website to do with earthquakes, he doesn't currently have a job and he is not a fan of the uk political party labour.
This is one of the few pictures currently on my stream taken with my 70 - 200! I just forgot that I had it on :D
Here we have Elsoms fuel depot and Petrol station in Horncastle Lincolnshire back in the 1940's selling Power petrol.
Two pumps can see but only one has a globe on the top.
Just behind the hanging Power sign appears to either be two signs or globes as well as a Mobilgas sign above the nearest tanker
I have to presume all tankers are branded as Elsoms but don't recognise any, although the furthest one may be a Fordson, but would love any confirmation on this or any of the little bits noticed in the photo.
Fuel sales ended under the Burmah brand back around 1999 and became Mid Lincs Commercials after, which sold a variety of cars and vans, this can be seen in the earliest street view image
By 2014 It had hand car wash which this had been until fairly recently, I get the impression that this no longer operates.

Class 08 diesel shunter D4075 and solitary brake van, are about to trundle across the level crossing and pass the wonderful Great Northern Railway signal box at Bardney on their way to Horncastle to pick-up two empty tank wagons from a small Esso depot there, a journey of 23 miles from Lincoln, in 1970. The line between Lincoln (Greetwell Junction) to Firsby (Bellwater Junction) closed to passengers in October 1970, but the short section to Bardney remained open for many years after to serve the British Sugar works situated there. Bardney box (formerly Bardney North) which dated from 1876, closed on the 5th October 1970.
