Access to the nave cathedral will only be available to those attending the funeral service between 7.00am-12.30pm.on Friday 20 April.
The east end of building will remain available to view – please ask a Steward for directions.

Height limit could just be to keep other a/c away from the area during those times.

[baz1]

yes, no way near high enough for a performance climb

Could be 2 things happening at the same time, not linked, so might not be Cpl Bayliss' funeral.

Personnel from RAF Waddington and RAF Scampton will parade through Lincoln High Street later this morning for the 2018 Freedom of Lincoln Parade.

Join us on Facebook Live at 11.30 a.m for a view from the War Memorial.

Parade personnel have been practising hard through the week. Here's a short video from one of the parade participants.
