Exploring Historic Architecture

Can’t distinguish your corbels from your capitals? Can’t tell your trefoils from your stiff-leaves, your buttresses from your arcade piers, then this is the course for you!

This midweek break is suitable for anyone who has an interest in historic buildings. We will look at the basics of architectural form through illustrated talks. But most of the break will be spent exploring a range of architectural forms as displayed by the wonderful historic buildings of Lincoln.

We will take our time to discover the fantastic medieval Gothic cathedral, with its many interesting features such as the chapter house, cloisters and the library designed by Sir Christopher Wren. We will also consider the equally beautiful buildings of the Cathedral Close and Steep Hill.
