A magnificent view after 36 years
2022 was a momentous year for Lincoln Cathedral, as the historic monument returned to its former glory by shedding its scaffolding on the west front for the first time since the mid-1980s.
Thanks to £1.5 million of national lottery heritage funding and the hard work of masonry experts, the frieze has now been given a full conservation makeover to return the site to its former glory.A project that started in 2016, but has been discussed for decades. | Photo: Steve Smailes for The Lincolnite
At long last, people visiting our city and residents alike could take in the sights and enjoy the Romanesque Frieze, as the copy carvings of the 1990s and 2000s were moved into The Old Deanery visitor centre. Michael Sheppard, director of works and properties at Lincoln Cathedral, was in charge of the conservation project and called it a true career highlight.
