Writing a Lincoln round from your own material

Quiz night in Lincoln often comes down to who knows the cathedral and castle history best, so a good round needs questions with clear answers. Writing one from scratch takes time, but you can start with your own notes and build a Lincoln pub quiz round from them.

  • Mix easy landmark questions with a few harder local history ones.
  • Check each fact against a reliable source before the quiz.
  • Keep answers short so they are easy to judge at the bar.
  • Reuse the same notes to make a fresh round each week.
