I visited Lincolnshire for the first time this week and stayed with a good friend in Heckington. Here's a bit about what we got up to—teas, plum bread, and pizza included! Heckington has the world's only eight sail windmill (it's still in operation, too). There's also a large church, and we discovered the village library. At the charming, old-fashioned Kinema in the Woods near Woodhall Spa we saw the new film Firebrand. We went to a pub quiz, sampled plum bread with cheese, and made our own pizzas. In Lincoln, we had tea at Stokes High Bridge Café and visited the castle—which has one of four original copies of the Magna Carta—and the cathedral, home of the Lincoln Imp. There's much more to see, of course. I hope to be back soon!
