High Bridge is one of Lincoln’s best time capsules: an 11th-century stone bridge topped with a 15th-century timber-framed building. Today, it’s home to High Bridge Café, lovingly run by Stokes. From medieval trade route to coffee stop, this gem is uniquely Lincolnshire.

A reminder that we now have a Facebook account. facebook.com/people/The-Sur…

The Oriel Window, Eastgate Originally part of John of Gaunt's Palace, owned by the Sutton family, on Lincoln High Street opposite St Mary's Guildhall, this window has seen so much history! You can find out more about it on one of our guided grounds tours, included in admission.
