Lincolnshire, England’s second largest county, is used to breaking records. For over 200 years from 1311 until 1548 Lincoln Cathedral, ‘the most precious piece of architecture in England’ according to John Ruskin, was the tallest building in the world, with a central spire 525 feet high (160m) – the first structure in 4,000 years to top the Great Pyramid. Alas, the spire blew down in a storm. Near to the cathedral stands a third-century Roman arch, the oldest in Britain still used by traffic, while the aptly named Steep Hill, a winding cobbled street lined with houses dating back to the Normans, and leading from the cathedral down into commercial Lincoln, is the fourth steepest street in England.
