An wonderful array of English architecture can be seen from Lincoln Castle walls. From left to right:-

• The impressive Crown Court was built in 1826 and is still in use today.

• The Cathedral which dominates the landscape, dates from 1088 and was completed in several phases throughout the medieval period.

• The red brick Georgian Prison was built in 1787 for debtors and felons.

• The Castle's walls and second Motte built by William the Conqueror in the late 11th Century. The Observatory Tower was added to the Motte in 1820.
