Lincoln – Think Excitement
Our Academy is situated on the edge of the Cathedral City of Lincoln, regularly recognised as a great place to live and work. Lincoln is a small, vibrant and safe City dating back to Roman times, a history that is evident throughout the oldest parts of the City. The popular “uphill” area of the City incorporates the magnificent Gothic Cathedral and Lincoln Castle, home to one of only four remaining copies of the Magna Carta. The surrounding cobbled streets, including Lincoln’s famous Steep Hill boast a range of bars, restaurants, and specialist shops to explore. At the bottom of the hill, Lincoln continues to develop around its successful University and the buzzing Brayford Marina, offering an array of bars, restaurants and cinema. The Arts are well catered for with the Lincoln Theatre Royal, Drill Hall, Engine Shed, and Lincoln Performing Arts Centre providing a range of events from traditional theatre to rock concerts.
Further afield, Lincolnshire holds miles of unspoilt and secluded coastline with wide golden beaches, and the beautiful Lincolnshire Wolds are an increasingly open secret for walkers and wildlife observers.
