Many of my family were christened, married and buried in this church. I found the story of the shoe fascinating and will add this to my tree. Thank you.

According to some there is a tunnel that goes from the cathedral and to a house that was used to hold women till court appearances, this tunnel goes directly under ST Micheal,s Mount. The church was bought for over 200k more than the asking price so to secure its sale so the tunnel could not be explored , but sealed and hid with no trace.

I am reproducing some of the information given here for the historical background section of the archaeological specification; hope that's all right. I can't pers. comm. individuals because you haven't given your full (or possibly even real) names, but I promise I'll make full bibliographic reference to the website, with its address.

It has an amazing stain glass window of Mary Magdalene and above her the Freemasonic 'Squaring of the circle', confirming a Masoic connection somewhere down the historical time line. Such a shame it has been lost to a hotelier..synchronistic - as is much of the Code - that the proprieter is a Mr Green!

It will also be available for complete private hire. I don't think the planning permission has been finalised yet but it is well on. The new owners are keen to give the church a loving new lease of life and make it a valued part of uphill Lincoln. The designs for the hotel will bring in some modern styling but are intended to enhance the stunning architectural features and maintain the integrity of the building. The beautiful angels have been taken down for a cleaning but will be restored to their homes within the re-vamp. All being well it will be looking fabulous by the latter part of this year!
