Image by Lincolnian (Brian) – BUSY – IN AND OUT
This imposing building is part of ‘The Lawn’ complex. Now both a public amenity and conference centre it is a popular venue for meetings, fayres, weddings etc., a far cry from it original usage. The building opened in 1820 as the Lincoln Lunatic Asylum and was the County’s first purpose-built hospital for the mentally ill. The south front of the main building (seen here) was designed by Richard Ingleman (1777-1838).

The Asylum was re-named as The Lawn Hospital for the Insane in 1885, taken over by the National Health Service in 1948 and was finally closed in the mid 1980s.
