Tucked away behind some trees in Newport, Lincoln, stands St Nicholas Church, a building that replaced a much earlier church.The original ancient church was about 500 yards to the south of the present one and was so badly damaged in the Civil War that most of it was dismantled and the stone used to reinforce the city defences. For more than a century there was no church building in the parish. During the 1830s it was considered that the provision of a church would give a civilising influence to this area of Lincoln which had a reputation as being rather a rough suburb. Land was given, and a competition held for the design. The winner was George Gilbert Scott, a young architect who, until then, had worked on municipal buildings, such as workhouses. St. Nicholas was his first church and it was built in 1840. The north and south aisles were added later, as funds permitted. The chancel was added in 1909.

The Lord Tennyson, Rasen Lane, Lincoln This pub in the uphill area of Lincoln was renamed the "Lord Tennyson" some years ago, I'm not sure exactly when but I recall it as the "Royal George", it's original name, in the late 70's. It dates back to 1949, a time when this area of Lincoln was expanding.

Judges' Lodgings, Castle Square, Lincoln. Lincoln Castle has always been a centre of justice so it is not surprising that the Judges' Lodgings can be found just outside the east gate (and the only gate in use until recent years) of Lincoln Castle. This fine yellow-brick Georgian building designed by William Hayward dates from 1809. The stone pediment above the front door, made from Coade stone, bears the Hanoverian version of the Royal Coat of Arms. To this day the building still provides accommodation for the High Court Judges when they are presiding at the Crown Court.
