"The Lincoln Castle Garrison living history camp will demonstrate what 15th century life was like.

"You'll hear prisoners tales brought to life and can even take a tour of the prison.

"There will be archery displays throughout the day and you can even have a go if you think you're a good shot."

The event runs from 10am to 4pm.
