Another Lincoln photo today. This is Lincoln High street, though it is now pedestrianised, traffic many years ago used to travel along this road. I have even seen an old picture which shows a bus coming through the arch of the Stone Bow. The Stone Bow was a Guild Hall / Civic building at one time. Many an assignation has been sealed with a meeting under the Stone Bow clock!
The chap in dark clothing on the left was a street singer & rather a " high brow" one at that. He was singing things like " Bring him Home" from Les Miserables, " Funiculi Funicular" & "Nessun Dorma" etc. So in essence a typical City weekend scene.

Lovely shot, surpising that busses travelled that narrow road.

[Lou Ann]

A wonderful street scene. I would love to have heard that singer!

[Milanie]

Like seeing how busy this is - great details.

[Suzanne]

A lovely street scene, I love Lincoln, so historic. The young ones with the phones appear to be taking photos of you rather than the posh singer!

[FBailey]

Shows the hustle and bustle of street life very well

[Shirley B]

A fascinating look at a very busy scene. Love it !

[JackieR]

Wonderful 'natural" capture, Carole.& lots to view...are those two in the middle taking photos on their phones?

[Richard Brown]

Great street scene found myself staring at this for a little while so have a fav for making me stop and take in the view :)

[Beryl Lloyd]

A lovely candid street scene -- love that you have captured the hustle and bustle in the crowded street ! fav

It looks very busy, so many people. There used to be a great hardware shop just down on the right of this picture many many years ago. Probably long gone now though.

@ludwigsdiana thank you Diana, it probably looks a bit narrower than it actually is, but it was a two way road.
@louannwarren Thank you Lou Ann, he was amazing, far too good for busking!
@milaniet Thank you Milanie
@suzanne234 think they were actually videoing him.
@fbailey Thank you.
@boatman137 Thank you Shirley.
@30pics4jackiesdiamond nah, videoing the singer.
@phil_sandford Thank you.
@lovingandsharing Thank you, shame they are unaware of their infamy!
@happysnaps Thank you, think they were videoing the singer - he was very good!
@rjb71 Thank you Richard for your fav & comment - made me laugh!
@beryl Thank you Beryl.
@onewing hardware shop long gone I would say. It's mainly clothes shops & card shops in the area you are indicating. I'm sure you would notice a lot of changes Babs.
