            Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Lincoln
The Nave

Lincoln Cathedral sits on high ground overlooking the city, building work on the cathedral commenced in 1088 and continued in several phases throughout the medieval period, originally the three towers had slate spires, the spire on the central tower reputedly made the cathedral the tallest building in the world for 238 years between 1311 and 1549 when the spire was blow off in a storm, it was never placed.
 
The eminent Victorian writer John Ruskin declared: "I have always held... that the cathedral of Lincoln is out and out the most precious piece of architecture in the British Isles and roughly speaking worth any two other cathedrals we have.
