One of the many beautiful houses surrounding Lincoln Cathedral in the Cathedral Close 😍

This blue one in particular was briefly the home of 16th Century composer William Byrd. Byrd's first appointment was as organist and master chorister at Lincoln Cathedral. He goes on to be a well known name in secular music during this period.

Join us on a walking tour and find out more about the history behind the beautiful historic buildings across the city 👍

Lovely to see people out and about despite the unsettled weather at the moment. Here they all are next to Lincoln's Roman Mint Wall. Thanks to everyone that joined Marisa on her tour of Lincoln yesterday 🙏

Look at the fantastic job the stonemasons are doing on the Chapter House at Lincoln Cathedral. The replacement pinnacles are particularly impressive 😍

We've been watching this restoration work as we walk guests past the Chapter House every week and the talent of the stonemasons never cease to amaze us 💛

Lincoln Cathedral is lucky to have its own team of experts and has one of the biggest cathedral works departments in the country. It employs stonemasons, conservationists, glazers, joiners, plumbers (leadwork), engineers and a maintenance team!

We are absolutely delighted to be beginning walking tours of our beautiful city on Tuesdays from tomorrow 💛

Tuesday provides more options for those visiting Lincoln during the week, as well as locals who have struggled to find the time outside of work to come along. Hopefully this provides a few more options for people 👍

Our guide James will be ready and raring to go, look out for his yellow brolly in Castle Square tomorrow at 10am...

Our beautiful city looking spectacular in the sun yesterday 😍☀️

There are some great vantage points of the city including the view from the Observatory Tower of Lincoln Castle and the view of the skyline from the International Bomber Command Centre. But arguably the best is from the top of Lincoln Cathedral 💛

In this photo you can get a great sense of the elevated position of the upper city and Lincoln Castle, as well as the rooftops of the modern city that surround it.

Roof and tower tours are available at Lincoln Cathedral. Be sure to check them out if you are visiting the city 👍

The beautifully carved arch of the main door of the West Front of Lincoln Cathedral 😍

This is the oldest part of the cathedral dating back to the original Norman construction between 1072-1092. It has of course seen many changes over the years including the introduction of the Gallery of the Kings above 👆

The Gallery of the Kings depicts all the early Medieval kinds in chronological order from William the Conqueror through to Edward III!

Come along on a tour with us and find out more...
