Thursday doors – 3 August 2023

Doors 229 – Lincoln City doors (Part II)

As mentioned last week, my first visit to Lincoln City was a real surprise, and I simply wasn’t prepared for just how beautiful parts of the city are. The centre of the city is quite small and can be toured on foot, if you are comfortable with a steep hill or two – coming from Bristol, hills present no problems. The remaining posts from the city contain doors, predominantly from the old parts near the Cathedral and castle – today focusses on the walk from my hotel up the hill towards the old city. Enjoy the doors:

The doors get a little bit more interesting next week, I promise, but I guess the first two Lincoln door posts have been a bit of a teaser for the main event, although I am in danger of over-promising and under-delivering, so will quit while I am ahead.

Have a lovely weekend, and for anyone in the UK, I am assured that better weather is on the way in a week or two!

If you have made it this far, you probably like doors, and you really ought to take a look at theΒ No Facilities blog by Dan Anton who has taken over the hosting of Thursday Doors fromΒ Norm 2.0 blog. Links to more doorscursions can be found in the comments section of Dan Anton’s Thursday Doors post.

I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

  1. These have certainly been an enticing teaser, Steve. That first house looks like something we’d find in the old south. The slim church door and the door with those massive hinges are both very interesting. The restored Georgian door shows what sidelights should look like. Not the window-door-window composite that we see around here. I love that entrance.

  2. No need to wait for more interesting doors, these will do just fine. I love everything about that first house: doors, windows, balcony, railings. The skinny door at the church must be for those of us trying to stay on the straight and narrow. πŸ™‚ Ha! I also love the set of green doors in the last shot.
