- The documentary is about Stuart Boyfield who is the Domus Supervisor at Lincoln Cathedral. He runs one of the maintenance teams and it is his job to make sure that the cathedral is heated and lit.
Along the way, Stuart is always giving us an insight into the behind the scenes work at the cathedral and giving us his thoughts and views about his job and the building.

You know, I simply stumbled upon this and it really is very good indeed! What an atmospheric lace, and you have a gem in Stuart. A supremely happy man working in a magnificent environment and doing a truly worthwhile job. Thank you all,
Thanks for your comments Hamshaw. Stuart is a gem and the Cathedral is well worth a visit. They run some great tours of the place too!
Little Stuart ,what a guy, the politicians in this country want to take a leaf out of his book ,if they did their jobs properly like he does ,this country would be in a better shape,well done stu,credit to you for looking after this magnificent masterpiece.
Thanks John. Absolutely right. Stuart is a thoroughly decent chap. And the politicians could certainly learn something from his work ethic.
Wonderful documentary! When I was a kid, I got a book for Christmas called The Children's Guide to Architecture and the façade of Lincoln Cathedral was one of the pictures on the cover so I had wanted to see it since I was about 10 years old. My wish came true in 2010 when my friend and I went there in December on a not at all well-planned visit. Our trip coincided with the worst winter storm in years which ended up being lucky for us because we hadn't even booked a hotel! The weather caused the Christmas Market to be canceled at the last minute and we ended up having the Cathedral and the city pretty much to ourselves. I wouldn't give anything for that trip! I bet Stuart has some vivid memories of that storm too!!
Hey Stephen,
Thank you. Wow! Your trip sounds memorable and all thew more magical for the winter storm. Shame about the Christmas market cancelation but maybe you'll see it on a return visit...it really is very good. I bet if you asked Stuart, he would remember it.
Wonderful! I used to work in the Minster in the days when the Domus Supervisor was a mutton-chopped chap called Gordon. In those days, "young" Mr Boyfield was known as "Little Stuart"
I chuckled when Stuart called Jim 'Muck'.....that's a proper Lincoln expression ie a shortened version of mucker or mate. Excellent video and I'm off up the tower today for the first time after living in the city for half a century!
Thank you so much for the "work" you do👍😇🤗
Met this guy today, a really nice fella.
What a cool career! I'd love to work in such an amazing and beautiful building.
Love Lincoln ❤️ Nice to see the Cathedral from the perspective of the maintenance man “Domus Supervisor “. Even Mr Boyfield’s job title is majestic! Super! And he has a gargoyle/ grotesque xxx
Yes, Stuart's gargoyle is amazing. I went up onto the roof to film those shots. It's a pretty decent size and is a true work of art in itself. Stuart is rightly proud of it.
I love that Stuart has his own grotesque on the cathedral. It makes you look at those carved faces in new light, don’t you think?
Stuart is such a great Steward of the church. His name even fits his job!
This was fantastic thank you.
Thank you so much for the "work" you do👍😇🤗 the lovely children especially touched my heart ❤
What an amazing video, an amazing cathedral and a great guy to give the tour.
Thank you Shaun. It is an amazing cathedral and you're right, Stuart is a really great chap and if you ever visit, you will very likely see him working in and around the cathedral. Thanks again.
Beautiful cathedral a magnificent gothic wonder
I was born in a house on Greetwell Gate at 8.10 pm so the first external noise to reach my ears would have been the bells ringing the quarter hour.
I can see the Cathedral when I clock out of work and hear the chimes as I walk to the car park.
That was a wonderful documentary and a beautiful cathedral. Guys are like Stu and Jim are what keep the world going
What a fascinating and informative video.
A majestosa Catedral de Lincoln. Muito bonita o exterior e também o interior da Catedral. E o trabalho desse homem é muito bom. A visão que se tem lá de cima da torre é simplesmente linda e o céu estava lindo nesse dia parabéns.
I found it fascinating during the opening of the video how Stuart operates like clockwork while winding the clocks.He probably knows what time of day it is without even looking at his watch just by judging from the sounds of foot traffic.I was happy that we got a look into the bell tower.I’m a journeyman electrician by trade so i identified with many of the tasks involved.The fire alarm system,the most important had me at the edge of my chair...All good.
Very Interesting about the gargoyles.Those are the nicest looking gargoyles I’ve ever seen,far from the grotesque.Truly a humbling job.
The best video of this Cathedral I have seen. Made by someone who was worked there for 37 years!
I wish I loved my job this much
I visited this magnificent cathedral in 1991 when I travelled around England and Wales by car. This was when you could go by ferry from Gothenburg to Harwich, those where the days!
Yes ! A terrific journey ! Like Esbjerg to Newcastle ( DFDS ) and Fred Olsen lines from Norway to England. Vanished times. ...
@@2msvalkyrie529 Indeed, and I sure miss the good old times!
What a great documentary - lovely to see how much he enjoys his job, not many people can say that.
Serendipity at its best. What an excellent doco.
What a wonderful and interesting documentary. And what a lovely man to follow round. Brilliant. Have shared this to my social media. Thankyou.
God bless you Stuart amen
a very privileged job and satisfying compared to many so called jobs these days lucky man
Absolutely right Sam. Stuart is such a happy chap. He loves the job he does.
What a charming presenter and informative video.
I live nearby and visit the cathedral often. What I wouldn't do to have my own grotesque.
Incredibly jealous. I will be looking out for it when I am next there.
eddyk If you're stood at the front of the Cathedral, head out on the right hand side and about half way down (and back a bit) you'll find Stuart's grotesque. It is very cool.
This man, Stuart Boyfield, is simply in love with the Lincoln Cathedral, and wishes he had it only for himself
Thanks For The Wonderful Tour. Incredible Place. Would Love To Visit It Some Time & Meet you. Great Video & What A Great Job.
You're very welcome Paul. If you do ever visit the Cathedral then keep an eye out for Stuart. He would be pleased to meet you.
Well done, sir!
Wonderful Video. He is a wealth of knowledge. Seemed to be more about Mr. Stuart than the Cathedral though. Camera Man what happened
Greetings from New York City during Covid, January, 9, 2021. I'm loving this look at Lincoln Cathedral and the superb chap who takes us 'round it. I hope all is well with him and the folks in Lincoln ʕ•́؈•̀ʔ
yh g we chillin
Watching a guy wind clocks and changing rubbish bins. Fascinating.
Stuart is a cool guy spoken to him before what a privilege it was. The cathedral is one of the seven wonders of the world. ❤ the place ❤the city. County of the yellow bellies,gods county thats what i think any way. Oct 2020 🌎🙏🌎🙏 ❤🇬🇧🇬🇧❤
I would love to do that job😊
Would we ever build such a structure again the builders and planners of Centuries ago where so skilled. Add those skills to the skills needed to build sea faring ships right up to modern computers, rockets we are such a clever species.
What a great job to do
值得我去学习，这种精神。
37 years way to go !
He laughed like an imp after introducing us 😅
I couldn’t find the imp
What is the seating capacity for the main church because it seems as big as the RAH?
I'm not sure about the seating capacity. The cathedral does install more seats into the cathedral for special occasions, especially during the Christmas period.
swear ive seen him carrying a sand wheel barrow recently
Understand history and learn. Enough said
He seems like one of those "one kinds" of supervisors lol
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The church is supposed to open to everyone. But £9.50. This means poor people can't afford to go in.
You don't have to pay, they just ask if you would.
How else do you think they maintain the building?.
@@kellyshaw7271 You actually do have to pay.
@@Prc205 if you look on the desk, it says the price but also says, pay what you can afford. I've seen people enter through the rear doors and leave out the front without paying.
@@kellyshaw7271 i went yesterday, and believe me you have to pay. 14 and above pay £11. If people enter without paying then that’s down to them.👍
What is this Hogwarts!
The Absurdity of having to watch "camera on him " and listen to the man who looks after things . 7 min. in Off to watch JUST THE CATHEDRAL
Wow, a lie within the first two minutes. This building was NEVER the tallest building in the world.
Yes it WAS the tallest building in the world. FACT. Google it...this fact is everywhere.
LOL
It beat the great pyramid of giza, as the tallest building in the world until it's main tower toppled in an earthquake in the 1200s.
Best get your facts straight before you start throwing accusations......
DAMN! Wonderful place!
