Assessor comments
"Learn about the history of Lincoln in the city’s seat of government."
Overview
In constant use since its construction in 1520, Lincoln Guildhall is an impressive stone building, part of which forms an arch (or a ‘Stonebow’) over the High Street. It is still home to the city council but also houses a museum dealing with the city’s fascinating political history. Guided tours are available.

About the area
Much of the fenland around the Wash has been drained of its marshes and reclaimed as highly productive farmland. Further north, the coastline, with its sandy beaches, has been developed to accommodate the holiday industry, with caravans, campsites and the usual seaside paraphernalia.
