Lincoln Cathedral

So after a leisurely start, and breakfast in the Old Palace.....

We wandered through a little hole in the wall (which made me feel a bit like Alice in Wonderland!) to have a look around Lincoln Cathedral.

It is undergoing a lot of walk at the moment.  I am in awe of stonemasons and crafts people who can recreate these ancient artifacts.

Like all Cathedrals, Lincoln is jaw dropping in its splendour.  The young choir boys where practising Christmas Carols which made my lip quiver on more than one occasion whilst walking around.

One of our favourite parts was the chapel that was dedicated to the Army, Navy and Airforce.

It was quite striking and very moving.

These are the newest of the stained windows and I love them.  They are telling the story of the building of the Cathedral.

I absolutely love Cloisters in any Cathedral.  I can recommend the coffee and warm mince pies in the cloister cafe.

I think the old part of Lincoln at the top of the hill is the best bit.  We did venture down the hill later on, so I'll show you those photos later.
