I live in a small town outside Lincoln and love the whole area. The Lincolnshire Wolds are worth a visit they are a series of rolling chalk hills with glorious views, you can see Lincoln cathedral from the tops. There is a breed of interesting sheep, a deer herd and an old church on one section too.

Skegness aka Skegvegas, is the most popular seaside resort around here and has many smaller coastal villages a few miles either way: ingoldmells, chapel st leonards, Sutton on sea, mabelthorpe, and not far from Skegness (ie in Friskney) is the Lincolnshire Wildlife Park. Belton House is a popular stately home and country park. You may also be interested to know that Lincoln is the birthplace of the tank, popular for its ww2 Lancaster plane (one of only two in the world that still flies), and is the home of the Red Arrows aircraft display team

Lincoln is a beautiful city and seems to be unfamiliar to many international tourists, unlike York and Chester. Thank you for visiting and raising its profile. If you're into military aircraft, you'll see lots of them! Not for nothing is the county known as "RAF Lincolnshire". Just outside Lincoln is the International Bomber Command Centre which is a memorial to all the bomber aircrew who flew in World War II. Many, many bombers were based in Lincolnshire. A few miles away at RAF Coningsby (which is an active military airfield) is the RAF's Battle of Britain Memorial Flight with its working Spitfires, Hurricanes and one of only two airworthy Lancaster bombers in the whole world.

In 2023 I visited the UK. I took an afternoon narrowboat tour from Llangolen, Wales to the Ponctysyllte Aqueduct 200 feet above the River Dee. The boat travels at a walking pace, and the scenery was lovely, especially on the aqueduct! I opted for afternoon tea on the boat trip which was fun too! I have walked along a lot of canals in the West Midlands and generally they are quite scenic. In Chester I watched a couple pull their boat through a lock. I do think a few days trip on a narrow boat would be quite worth doing!

I'm just in the process of buying a narrowboat, and have spent a couple of months on a narrowboat before. A few things to note - the main one being that this is a very very leisurely way of life. You move at walking pace, and locks will add into your time, its also fairly physical - you have to operate locks and climb up and down ladders etc, so all in all, people generally do about 10-15 miles a day, so you don't get to see a lot of different places, and often you won't be moored up in a town at night, but if you enjoy travelling slowly and peacefully through countryside it's perfect.

If you don’t fancy having to deal with locks on the canal system, a good alternative is the Norfolk Broads. It’s a system of rivers in the east of England. The boats you can hire there aren’t narrowboats, so easier to handle, and there’s a huge variety of styles of boats. My husband and I didn’t visit The Broads until 2015 and fell in love with it so much that we have bought a share in a boat. Actually, we have an American couple who own a share and travel over every year to spend time on The Broads.

Nice of you to come to my home town, Lincoln. Everybody goes to York, but Lincoln is lovely too. The Cathedral was indeed the tallest building in the World for around 250 years, having taken the title from the Great Pyramid of Giza. If the spire had not fallen, it would have kept the title until 1884. Lincolnshire is known for its Plum Bread and Lincolnshire Sausages. It's also known as bomber county because of all the RAF bases.

An interesting video and well researched. I grew up in and around Lincoln in the late 1970s and early 1980s while I was at primary and secondary school. I had a friend who rented a flat in the Deans house opposite the west front of the cathedral (where the entrance door is). It was quite surreal at night lying in the bath looking straight at the huge west front of the cathedral - all floodlit and magnificent - enjoying the fantastic view while twiddling the hot tap on an off with your toes... 😀 Lincoln is a nice city. Not too big and very relaxed. My Portuguese wife and I got married there and returned to live there for four years before coming back to Portugal. Roman artefacts and walls are everywhere in uphill Lincoln. The bottom of some walls are roman, while the tops are early English and gothic, with other eras in between. You can see 1000 years of building styles in in a 12 foot wall that had bits added time after time. I hadn't really noticed this but when in Lincoln one day and while taking a break in a quiet spot near that wall to have a sandwich, I met an American student who was backpacking around England and he pointed this out to me. I studied ecclesiastic architecture at school but Lincoln has so many of these little details that you often just walk past without noticing and it takes a visitor to bring them to your attention. The Jews House at the bottom of Steep Hill was built in 1150 and is one of the oldest domestic dwellings in England. But locals just walk past it without a second thought as they huff and puff up the hill or plod down it. Your video captured both of the first two places where I worked in the mid-80s.

Had this appear in my recommendations. I'm from Lincoln and worked at the castle for a few years and my sister did a bit at the cathedral. Not a narrow boat, but my brother has a boat moored on the pool. He quite enjoys the boat with his for orly 2 dogs (one died of old age)

There's a couple of KZbinrs- The Narrowboat Pirate + Cruising the Cut whose videos will give you a great insight on canal boating, definitely worth a look

Heyyy. Some other channel recommendations on narrow boat life I like to follow. Ula and Josh, Ben and Emily, and narrowboat life unlocked.
