Lincoln

Lincoln is one of our "further away" jaunts on a Saturday! Lincoln is a very interesting city as it has both an old and new part to the city centre.

You are immediately taken back a century or two as you are greeted with narrow cobbled streets, a lovely square with a few market stalls (see picture below) and many quaint independent shops as well as, of course, the Cathedral!

There are many tearooms and eating places within Lincoln city, both the old and new part. No doubt we will add our own personal reviews of any more if and when we visit.
