Lincolnshire
A pastoral county in eastern England, led by Lincoln Cathedral and its ancient castle, with aviation history and historic estates to explore.
Lincolnshire is located in eastern England, featuring flat terrain, vast farmland, and a North Sea coastline. The county town of Lincoln features a cathedral perched high on a hill, which is one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in the UK. Lincoln Castle, the Medieval Bishop's Palace, and the Steep Hill street form the heart of the historic city, while Newport Arch is a rare Roman-era survival. The county was once a major hub for RAF Bomber Command bases, and the International Bomber Command Centre tells this history. Belton House, Doddington Hall, and Tattershall Castle are perfect for countryside excursions. Spring, summer, and early autumn are the best times to visit. The main gateway is Lincoln Train Station, accessible from London and other cities via Newark.
