About the time in Lincoln
Sunrise today lands at 05:52 and sunset at 08:18 local time, giving 14h 26m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (53.23, -0.54) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Lincoln.
Around 103,813 people live in Lincoln, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Lincoln is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +1 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
