The path beside the Fossdyke has at one end the Brayford pool in Lincoln with pubs, restaurants and cinema. The route continues past the Pyewipe Inn, Beyond that is Burton Waters with the very popular Woodcocks. Further on is the village of Saxilby with its railway station.

narrow path here alongside a very busy main road - barriers either side though.

Brilliant ride with good tarmac apart from 1 mile at Bardney.Suitable for mountain and road bikes Just have to push through central Lincoln or preferably don't cycle this section. Together with the 11.7 miles of old track heading west out of Lincoln over the Trent, this can make a 60 miles circuit of good off road cycling from Tuxford to Boston

It can be busy, with the café, the restaurant the bike and other shops. With those attractions goes at least two sets of toilets

Torksey Viaduct is closed. I was there on Friday 7th March 2025 and I ended up cycling south on A road to Dunham Bridge and back north to rejoin the route (Lincoln Gravel Imp). The viaduct may reopen in the future if a new leaseholder is found. Here is some info I found about the closure railwaypaths.org.uk/category/latest-news

The viaduct creates a link between Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire. The structure offers fantastic views of the ruined Torksey Castle.

St Peter's dates from the 12th century with later extensions, have an interesting font with a Spode font basin that was installed in 1814 and the front of the altar is formed from the tomb stone of the last abbess of Torksey. In the 7th century St Paulinus baptised a great multitude of people in the river near Torksey, in the presence of King Edwin. At the time of the Domesday Book there were 3000 people living here and of all the settlements in Lincolnshire, only Lincoln and Stamford were larger. In the Middle Ages as well as St Peter's, there were two other parish churches in Torksey, All Saints & St Mary's and two monasteries, a house of Augustinian Canons and the priory of Foss for Cistercian nuns. The settlement has shrunk to a quarter of its former size and all that is now left of this rich ecclesiastical heritage is St Peter's church.

Torksey Lock is a canal lock on the Fossdyke Navigation Canal near Lincoln, England. It's a popular spot for leisure craft, wildlife watching, and walking. The Fossdyke Navigation Canal was originally dug in Roman times but was re-opened during the reign of James I. The lock controls the outfall to the River Trent.
