Lincoln Cathedral


After singing the midday concert at Selby Abbey, we made a stop at Lincoln Cathedral on our way to Cambridge. Lincoln is where the fellow who helped arrange our tour from the England side studied and sang as a student.

"The earliest parts of the current building date to 1072, when bishop Remigius de Fécamp moved his seat from Dorchester on Thames to Lincoln. The building was completed in 1092, but severely damaged in an earthquake in 1185. It was rebuilt over the following centuries in different phases of the Gothic style, with significant surviving parts of the cathedral in Early English, Decorated and Perpendicular." - Wikipedia
