Disused Railway station, where the Water Railway cycle route joins the road network. There are usually some sheep around here to say hello to.

I nice place for a stop. Former railway station. A little gravel car park in case you want you use this as a start location on your cycle route.

On the Water Rail Way cycle path near Woodhall Spa are some Lincoln Longwool Sheep sculptures by Sally Matthews. Lincoln Longwools are a very old breed of sheep, and at one stage a lot of Lincoln’s agricultural prosperity rested on their world production. Where the sculptures are is a nice spot, and the path opens out a bit, the sheep actually appear to be crossing the path, so be careful!

THIS UNUSUAL AND HISTORIC CINEMA was once an early 19th century farmhouse, before being converted into a recreation and entertainment center serving the nearby Victoria Hotel. After the hotel was destroyed by fire, the building was converted into the 68th cinema in Britain, opening in 1922. It was originally dubbed the “Pavilion Cinema.” However, upon completion headroom inside didn’t allow for a normal projection system, so a back-projection system was installed. The cinema’s first showing was a film by Charlie Chaplin, after a reel featuring, The Lion Eaters failed to arrive in time for the premiere. The cinema now includes two screens, with the back projection system still operating on screen one, the original auditorium. The Kinema in the Woods is believed to be the only cinema in the United Kingdom to still utilize a back-projection system. Until 1953, the original auditorium had traditional tip-up seats, except for the first six rows.
