A very warm sunny afternoon.
Afternoon spent around Lincoln Cathedral (no way spending a tenner or whatever it costs to enter), Lincoln Castle, to The Lawn, then down Steep Hill but not into the city centre.
Usually I walk up Steep Hill.
To save time I walked along Lindum Terrace, above The Arboretum, with stunning views across the city.
Very impressive Victorian Mansions along this route.
I was looking for more Knights.
As I found my first Knight, I also came across my first Steam Punks.
Victorians, mix in the future of H G Wells, and you have Steam Punks.
A four day gathering of Steam Punks starting today.
Through Lincoln Castle, out the West Gate to The Lawn.
Stokes have now relocated to The Lawn have opened a very modern coffee shop, Stokes Lawn Cafe, have also relocated their roastery to The Lawn.
I had a cappuccino. It was not good, in fact it was awful. Worst I have had from Stokes.
Then, to the delight of the barista, a V60 using Finca Immaculada Laurina de Colombia roasted by Union Hand-Roasted.
They have something I have never seen before, a hollowed out wooden block, with a conical metal filter with different size holes. Maybe try one day.
Back through Lincoln Castle, I let the guard know where he could find a coffee, more Steam Punks, then down Steepp Hill, l but not into the town centre.
