Restoration work will begin at the West Front of the Lincoln Cathedral next week.

It will involve conservation works to the 14th century 'Gallery of Kings' and the 12th century Romanesque Frieze.

​

Scaffolding will be erected on Monday. 

​

Lincoln Cathedral Connected, the lottery-backed project funding the restoration, has not said when it will be complete.

​

Anne Irving, project manager of Lincoln Cathedral Connected, said: "The Romanesque Frieze on the West Front has been covered for many years, so this work to unveil the carving and stone work has been a long time coming and I can't wait to see what we refer to as the 'workshop in the sky' in place."
