The Strait, Lincoln

Image: © Stephen McKay Taken: 10 Dec 2010

The Strait is the first section of the ever-steepening hill that leads up from the Lincoln's High Street towards the cathedral and the castle; further up the narrow street is called 'Steep Hill'. At night, overshadowed by the illuminated cathedral and here decked with Christmas lights, this must be one of the most atmospheric cityscapes in Britain.
