Sharing more pics from Lincoln. ;)

1. This is Steep Hill, check out the gradient. It's not easy walking down and even worst walking up. Maybe this is the reason why the street up hill is so quiet.

2. The arches at the background are called Stonebow, a 15th century structure with the Guildhall adjacent, where the Council has met for centuries.

3. The High Bridge, built over the Witham, is one of the few mediaeval bridges in England with houses still upon it. The bridge is of a fine ribbed Norman Arch 22 foot span, dating 1160. The dark vault beneath, formerly named "The Murder Hole" now bears the romantic title of "The Glory Hole." The Stokes of Lincoln, a small family business serving freshly roasted coffees and fine teas now reside in the house above the bridge.
