Its a lovely place to shop.

I have never been there at night but I'n sure there will be some great places to eat.

The Cathederal is where they filmed the 'de vinci code'.

There is only one main street, so you walk up there taking in the shops, under the archway for more shops , up the hill to antique quaint shops and then arrive at the Vathedral which is quite impressive (you can have a picnic on the grounds if you wish). You could also take a stroll down the river and feed the ducks and swans, or go out on the lake in a barge or boat!

Quite a few places to eat and drink on the main street.

Bridge Cafe for a posh scone and superb coffee.

Walk up Steep hill (it is aptly named) to Cathedral and Castle

Personally, being a lazy sod, I'd start at the cathedral and castle then walk down the hill, as it is indeed very steep!!!

There used to be a really nice coffee house in the centre (Stokes), old fashioned Tudor looking building if you fancy a t-break.

I live in Lincoln. Deffinately visit the cathedral. The castle is very close and is also well worth a visit. As you make your way down into the town all the shopping area is either side on the main high st, including the waterside shopping center. Lincolns a great place to visit.
