A20 (Not) Whisby Nature Park
from LINCOLN AtoZ · host Lincoln A to Z
This week we look forward to visiting the restful oasis that is Whisby Nature Park - but instead find ourselves cowering on a grass verge as HGVs whizz past, as we discover that our usually trusty map has lied to us! Instead, the grid turns out to be dominated by caravans, barbed-wire fences and a bypass. Paul reminisces about his short-lived Kayaking adventures, whilst Jonny reveals his not unreasonable disinclination towards defecating within earshot of loved ones. Meanwhile, Paul talks to George Hazelwood of grid-based business Hazelwood Ski World, Tref gets poetical about the lakes through the seasons, and Jo does a sterling job of bringing us the history of what at first seems an unpromising grid for historical investigation. All this, plus another round of A Question of Lincoln.
