Where to stay in Birchwood
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
Birchwood houses people, not visitors. What it has instead is space: family streets, off-road parking, and the Lincolnshire Road Transport Museum a walk away rather than a drive. Most beds in the area sit closer to the middle of Lincoln, so a stay in Birchwood usually means a car and a short run in for the evening.

About Birchwood

The Lincolnshire Road Transport Museum is Birchwood's public face. Road vehicles make up its collection, an unusual thing to find on a residential edge of Lincoln, and the museum gives the district a reason for visitors that its streets alone would not supply. St Luke and St Martin Church holds the other name on Birchwood's short list.
What is the history of Birchwood?
Birchwood is a modern part of Lincoln. Its record is short and held in two institutions rather than in charters: St Luke and St Martin Church, which serves the parish, and the Lincolnshire Road Transport Museum, which keeps road transport under one roof. Nothing older shows on the map.
Where is Birchwood?
Birchwood occupies part of the outer housing of Lincoln, in Lincolnshire, on ground shared with St Luke and St Martin Church.
