People going along to Metheringham Airfield Visitor Centre can meet the ‘Knight of the Skies’ at 2pm on Saturday April 22.

The Knights Trail has been created as a follow up to the highly successful decorated Baron sculptures that were located all over the city and proved popular with tourists. This time 36 sculptures will be dotted across the city from May 20 until September 3 to celebrate the 800th anniversary of the Battle of Lincoln and the sealing of the Charter of the Forest.
