    Lovely video. I lived just outside Lincoln for many years and still have family there. I now live in Australia but make a point of visiting each time I go back. So much history, including the Romans and the Dambusters Squadron at RAF Scampton (the Roman road is the A15 which runs past Scampton). The “man and his dog” statue in the grounds of Lincoln Cathedral is Alfred, Lord Tennyson who was Queen Victoria’s Poet Laureate in the last 1800s. He was born in Somersby in Lincolnshire and his resting place is Westminster Abbey.

    Really lovely! Always enjoy your tours. There is something different about Lincoln Cathedral. Maybe it's the octagonal corner towers and the wide front facade. It also appears to be massive! I adore the rows of flower and animal carvings. I'm also intrigued about that Wren Library. I'll have to look it up. History tidbits are always fun. Sausage rolls are not easy to find in Southern California, but there are a few English folk who ventured across the Pond to set up tea shops and pubs here. There is one place, called Shakespeare's (yes, really), that serves High Tea on one side of the building, and pints with meat pies, fish and chips, etc. on the other. The place goes nuts during the World Cup. :0

    As no one else seems to have mentioned it, Eleanor is the reason for the 12 Eleanor Crosses built wherever the body rested on it's way down to London for burial.
    It's how Waltham Cross and Charring Cross - as in the railway station - got their names,
