Has anyone spotted these circular brick roundels along the street in the Bailgate?

If you've been on a tour with us, you'll know what they represent. But these are probably one of the most overlooked things in Lincoln and many visitors and locals alike miss these assuming they are a manhole!

The roundels represent the position of Roman column bases found under the street in the 19th Century. The columns would have formed a colonnade along the eastern flank of the city's Roman Forum, and stretch up a large section of Lincoln's Bailgate. It is a great way of understanding the scale of the Forum which would have been the largest structure in the city at the time 😮

Find out more about Roman Lincoln on our Roman walking tours. Next one, Sunday 22nd November 👍

We've had quite a few conversations recently with people who, despite following us on social media, aren't getting updates from our page and have missed the opportunity to join tours 😕

To remedy this, we are starting a mailing list! If you join the mailing list you will receive the latest news and events straight to your emails, avoiding the chance of missing out on a new tour!

We have added a tick box to our online booking forms that you can tick to be added to the list. Alternatively if you've already been on a tour with us, feel free to send us a message with your email address and we will manually add you to the list 👍

Hopefully the algorithm gets this message out to the right people 😂

A beautiful and busy autumn day yesterday with two groups of wonderful people guided around the city 🍂

First up our free walking tour in the morning with guide James, taking guests on a journey through Lincoln's fascinating 2000 years of history!

Then in the afternoon it was the turn of guide Brant and our historic pubs walking tour, learning more about the city's hostelries and sampling some of the b**r the area has to offer 🍻

If you'd like to join us for either of these tours, you can find more details, schedules and how to book via our website (link in our bio). Why not book with us?

Last year we were commissioned to put together a walking tour focusing on themes of diversity, migration, gender, sexuality and well-being within Lincoln's history for the city's Frequency Festival.

We spoke about the murals in Lincoln's Russell Chantry by Duncan Grant (above), women in Medieval Lincoln including Nicola De La Haye and Katherine Swynford, the work of pioneering work of priest Edward Chad Varah and much more 👍

We really enjoyed the process of putting together and guiding the tour, people that came along seemed to love it, and it had a really positive energy 💛

As part of our series of guest tours this year, we have decided to bring this tour back once again on Sunday 8th November. If you want to hear some lesser known stories of Lincoln's history, this is for you. Book for free via our website (follow the link in our bio)...
